Answer:
x = -4, 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic can be solved may ways, including graphing, factoring, and the quadratic formula. You can also check possible answers by making use of the relationships between solutions and the coefficients.
__
A graph is attached. It shows the solutions to be -4 and 5/2.
__
When factored, the equation becomes ...
(2x -5)(x +4) = 0 . . . . . has solutions x=-4, x=5/2 (these make the factors zero)
__
Using the quadratic formula, the solutions of ax^2 +bx +c = 0 are found from ...
x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)
x = (-3±√(3²-4(2)(-20))/(2(2)) = (-3±√169)/4 = {-16, +10}/4
x = {-4, 5/2}
__
For ax^2 +bx +c = 0, the solutions must satisfy ...
product of solutions is c/a = -20/2 = -10
Only the first and last choices have this product.
sum of solutions is -b/a = -3/2
Only the first choice (-4, 5/2) has this sum.
Using the data for each truck lets calculate,
median for truck 1 - 511.5
median for truck 2 - 650.5
lets consider each statement
A.medians for both trucks are the same - wrong
median for 1 and 2 are 511.5 and 650.5 respectively
B. the two trucks sold most number of tacos on 3rd day
truck 1 sold 437 on day 3 but highest number it sold was 721 on day 1
truck 2 sold 426 on day 3 but highest number was 732 on day 6
therefore this statement too is wrong
C.
truck 1 - range between maximum(721) and minimum(425) = 296
truck 2 - maximum (732) and minimum (426) difference = 306
the range between maximum and minimum in truck 2 is 306 thats greater than range between maximum and minimum in truck 1, that's 296
therefore this statement is correct
D.
total number of tacos for each truck -
truck 1 - 5291
truck 2 - 6107
food truck 1 sold less than truck 2 therefore this statement too is wrong
Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
127
Step-by-step explanation:
3 x 7 + 5 - 2 - 3 + y
y = 106
3x7 = 21
21 + 5 = 26
26 - 2 = 24
24 - 3 = 21
21 + 106 = 127
