The formula for the quadratic formula is x (c in this case) = (-b(+/-)√(b²-4ac))/2a
This is used for an equation in standard quadratic form: ax² + bx + c = 0
1.) Put it in the correct form, if not already in it.
Ex. c² + 6c + 8 = 0
2.) Identify each part of the equation:
a = 1 (the leading coefficient), b = 6 (the coefficient in front of the second variable), c = 8
3.) Plug in each variable answer
c = (-6(+/-)√(6²-4(1)(8))/2(1)
4.) Simplify
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-(4*8))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-32))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(4))/2
c = (-6(+/-)2)/2
*Here, the equation splits in two. It becomes:
c = (-6+2)/2 AND c = (-6-2)/2
*Simplify again:
c = -4/2 AND c = -8/2
c = -2 AND c = -4
The answers c = -2 and c = -4 would solve the given equation.
Hope this helps! :)
The equation of a circle always follows this:
(x - x1) + (y - y1) = r^2
x1 and y1 represent the coordinates as POSITIVE numbers and the r represent the radius
Your answer is (x + 1) + (y - 4) = 3
6 - p....p = 1.5
6 - 1.5 = 4.5
TRUE...because when u sub in 1.5 for p, the difference is 4.5, which is less then 5.
(30)(420) = 12000 - 600
12600 = 11400...incorrect
FALSE...because the product of 30 and 420 does not equal 600 less then 12000
16.3 + 11.9 < 27
28.2 < 27..incorrect
FALSE...because the sum of 16.3 and 11.9 is greater then 27
About 4.65 miles. Multiply 3 1/2 (3.5) by 1 1/3 (1.33) and thats how you get the answer
