Using the quadratic formula, what is the value of x for x^2-4+5=0

PSYCHO15rus [73]

value of x is: x= i and x= -i

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of x from $x^2-4+5=0$ using quadratic formula.

The term is: $x^2+1=0$

The quadratic formula is:

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\$

Where a = 1, b=0,c=1

Putting values:

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\x=\frac{0\pm\sqrt{(0)^2-4(1)(1)}}{2(1)}\\x=\frac{\pm\sqrt{-4}}{2}\\x=\frac{\pm2i}{2}\\x=\pm i$

So, value of x is: x= i and x= -i

sales at a local ice cream shop went up 30% in 5 years. if 18,000 ice cream cones were sold in that current year, find the numbe

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

$13,846\ cones$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of ice cream cones sold 5 years ago

Remember that

$100\%+30\%=130\%=130/100=1.3$

we know that

Sales 5 years ago, multiplied by the 30% increase should equal 18,000 ice cream cones.

so

The linear equation that represent this problem is

$1.30x=18,000$

Solve for x

Divide by 1.3 both sides

$x=13,846\ cones$
