Answer:

A: 9 is subtracted from the product of 5 and a number.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know this because when a varible is place directly next to a number then the number is being multiplied by an unknow number. So in this equation five is being multiplied by an unknown number and nine is being subtracted from that.

Determine the type and number of solutions of 4x^2-5x+1=0.

Arlecino [84]

<span>4x² - 5x + 1 = 0
a = 4; b = - 5, c = 1
</span>Δ = b² - 4.a.c
Δ = (-5)² - 4.4.1
Δ = 25 - 16
Δ = 9
<span>
x = - b </span>± √Δ / 2.a
$x = \frac{-5\± \sqrt{9} }{2*4}$
$x = \frac{-5\±3}{8}$
$x' = \frac{-5-3}{8} = \frac{-8}{8} = -1$
$x' = \frac{-5+3}{8} = \frac{-2}{8} (\div2) = \frac{-1}{4}$

A. Two real solutions (x' = -1 and x'' = -1/4)
