If your still using number blocks then it is 20 ones but if its just addition or so it is just 20
Because the polynomial has degree 2, we can assume that there are 2 solutions (roots), whether real or imaginary.
You can subtract 60 in order to put this in standard form
48x^2+44x-60 = 0
From there, just put a,b, and c into the quadratic formula and you're good to solve for your answers.
(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
(-44+-sqrt(44^2-4(48)(-60)))/2(48)
Then solve.
There is probably a better way, but this should give you the two roots/solutions.
I think the answer is 78.
Step-by-step explanation:
9(x - 11) = 9
x - 11 = 9 / 9
x - 11 = 1
x = 1 + 11
x = 12
Hope it will help :)
