How many and what type of solutions does 7x^2−4x+3 have? 1 rational solution 2 rational solutions 2 irrational solutions 2 nonre
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

2 non real solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use discriminant,

for ax²+bx+c=0

The discriminat is b²-4ac

If the discriminant is,

→ less than 0, then 0 real solutions

→ equal to 0, then 1 real solutions

→ more than 0, then 2 real solutions

Given that,

7x²−4x+3=0

a=7, b=-4, and c=3

→ (-4)²-4(7)(3)

→ 16-84

→ -68

You can see this is less than 0, then non real solutions. [2 nonreal solutions]

A test is worth 50 points. Multiple- choice questions are worth 1 point, and short answer questions are worth 3 points. if the t
bagirrra123 [75]
Correct answer is C. 
m + 3s = 50 
the total number of questions is 20. since the paper is made of only multiple choice and short answer questions, the sum of the multiple choice and short answer questions should be 20.
since multiple choice is 'm' and short answer is 's'
then m + s = 20
but theres no option for that 
if we take the number of points 
points for 1 multiple choice question - 1
then points for m number of multiple choice questions = 1 * m = m
points for 1 short answer - 3
then points for s number of short answer question = 3 * s = 3s
then total number of points = m + 3s
and the total number of points = 50
therefore 
m + 3s = 50
this is the correct answer C.

Solve:<br> 2/3x+15=17<br><br> 3x+8-x=7<br><br> 4(2x-6)=2
Volgvan

Answer:

x = 3

x = (-1)/2

x = 13/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(2 x)/3 + 15 = 17

Put each term in (2 x)/3 + 15 over the common denominator 3: (2 x)/3 + 15 = (2 x)/3 + 45/3:

(2 x)/3 + 45/3 = 17

(2 x)/3 + 45/3 = (2 x + 45)/3:

1/3 (2 x + 45) = 17

Multiply both sides of (2 x + 45)/3 = 17 by 3:

(3 (2 x + 45))/3 = 3×17

(3 (2 x + 45))/3 = 3/3×(2 x + 45) = 2 x + 45:

2 x + 45 = 3×17

3×17 = 51:

2 x + 45 = 51

Subtract 45 from both sides:

2 x + (45 - 45) = 51 - 45

45 - 45 = 0:

2 x = 51 - 45

51 - 45 = 6:

2 x = 6

Divide both sides of 2 x = 6 by 2:

(2 x)/2 = 6/2

2/2 = 1:

x = 6/2

The gcd of 6 and 2 is 2, so 6/2 = (2×3)/(2×1) = 2/2×3 = 3:

Answer:  x = 3

______________________________________________________

Solve for x:

3 x - x + 8 = 7

Grouping like terms, 3 x - x + 8 = (3 x - x) + 8:

(3 x - x) + 8 = 7

3 x - x = 2 x:

2 x + 8 = 7

Subtract 8 from both sides:

2 x + (8 - 8) = 7 - 8

8 - 8 = 0:

2 x = 7 - 8

7 - 8 = -1:

2 x = -1

Divide both sides of 2 x = -1 by 2:

(2 x)/2 = (-1)/2

2/2 = 1:

Answer: x = (-1)/2

_______________________________________

Solve for x:

4 (2 x - 6) = 2

Divide both sides of 4 (2 x - 6) = 2 by 4:

(4 (2 x - 6))/4 = 2/4

4/4 = 1:

2 x - 6 = 2/4

The gcd of 2 and 4 is 2, so 2/4 = (2×1)/(2×2) = 2/2×1/2 = 1/2:

2 x - 6 = 1/2

Add 6 to both sides:

2 x + (6 - 6) = 1/2 + 6

6 - 6 = 0:

2 x = 1/2 + 6

Put 1/2 + 6 over the common denominator 2. 1/2 + 6 = 1/2 + (2×6)/2:

2 x = 1/2 + (2×6)/2

2×6 = 12:

2 x = 1/2 + 12/2

1/2 + 12/2 = (1 + 12)/2:

2 x = (1 + 12)/2

1 + 12 = 13:

2 x = 13/2

Divide both sides by 2:

x = (13/2)/2

2×2 = 4:

Answer: x = 13/4
