Use the quadratic formula to find the zeros. 3x^2=8x+1

Mathematics
1 answer:
iVinArrow [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

  • x1 = 2.7863
  • x2 = - 0.11963

Step-by-step explanation:

Transform the quadratic to

3x^2 - 8x  - 1 = 0

I don't see any obvious factors to this equation so we need to use the quadratic equation.

\text{x = }\dfrac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}

  • a = 3
  • b = -8
  • c = - 1

\text{x = }\dfrac{ 8 \pm \sqrt{(-8)^2 - 4*3*(-1) } }{2*3}

\text{x = }\dfrac{( 8) \pm \sqrt{64 +12 } }{6}

\text{x = }\dfrac{( 8) \pm \sqrt{76 } }{6}

x = (8 +/- 8.7178 ) / 6

x1 = (16.87178)/6 = 2.7863

x2= (8 -8.7178)/6 = -0.1196

at a particular school 50% of students travel by bus. if this represents 600 children how many children attend the school
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

1200 students at the school

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total number of students at the school

50% ride the bus

600 students ride the bus

x*50% = 600

Changing to decimal form

.50x = 600

Divide each side by .5

.50x/.5 = 600/.5

x =1200

1200 students at the school

Multiply and give the answer in scientific notation: (2.3 x 10-3)(3 x 108) A) 6.9 x 105 B) 6.9 x 1011 C) 6.9 x 10-5 D) 6.9 x 102
Furkat [3]

Answer: A) is the right answer. 6.9\times10^{5}


Step-by-step explanation:

Given product : 2.3\times10^{-3}\times3\times10^8

To multiply above expression, first we need to combine like terms and then we need to use the law of exponents.

2.3\times3\times10^{-3}\times10^8\\=(2.3\times3)\times(10^{-3}\times10^8)\\=6.9\times10^{-3+8}......[\text{by law of exponents }a^n\cdot\ a^m=a^{m+n}]\\=6.9\times10^{5}

Thus, the answer is 6.9\times10^{5}.
