Answer: x = 6.32 or -0.32

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 6x + 10  = 0

No we divide the expression by 2 to make the coefficient of x² equals 1

We now have

x² - 3x + 5     = 0

Now we remove 5 to the other side of the equation

x² - 3x          = -5

we add to both side square of  half the coefficient of x which is 3

x² - 3x + ( ⁻³/₂)²  = -5 + (⁻³/₂)²

(x  -  ³/₂)²           = -5 + ⁹/₄

Resolve into fraction

(x  - ³/₂)²             = ⁻¹¹/4

Take the roots of the equation

 x - ³/₂               = √¹¹/₄

 x - ³/₂               = √11/₂

x                       = ³/₂ ± 3.32/₂

                         = 3+ 3.32 or 3 - 3.32

                         =  6.32 or - 0.32

Suppose 20 students delegates will attend the conference. Each school should be represented fairly in relation to it's populatio
algol [13]

Answer:

To find out the number coming from each school, you need to use the proportion of the school's population out of the population of all three.

Total population = 618 + 378 + 204

= 1,200 students

North Middle school:

= 618/1,200 * 20

= 10 students

Central Middle School:

= 378 / 1,200 * 20

= 6 students

South Middle School:

= 204/1,200 * 20

= 4 students
