We have to use the quadratic formula:

x= \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

in your equation:
a = 4
b = -10
c = 5

x= \frac{10±\sqrt{(-10)^{2}-4(4)(5)}}{2(4)}

we will do the positive part first:
x= \frac{10+ \sqrt{(-10)^{2}-4(4)(5)} }{2(4)} \\ x= \frac{10+ \sqrt{100-4(20)} }{8} \\ x= \frac{10+ \sqrt{100-80} }{8} \\ x= \frac{10+ \sqrt{20} }{8}

x= \frac{10+2 \sqrt{5} }{8}  \\ x= \frac{2(5+\sqrt{5})}{8}

cancel common terms:
x =  \frac{2(5+\sqrt{5})}{2(4)} \\ x= \frac{5+\sqrt{5}}{4}

Now for the negative root:
x= \frac{10- \sqrt{(-10)^{2}-4(4)(5)} }{2(4)} \\ x= \frac{10- \sqrt{100-4(20)} }{8} \\ x= \frac{10- \sqrt{100-80} }{8} \\ x= \frac{10- \sqrt{20} }{8}

x= \frac{10-2 \sqrt{5} }{8} \\ x= \frac{2(5-\sqrt{5})}{8} \\ x= \frac{5-\sqrt{5}}{4}

A=4 b=-10 c=5
10+-√100-(4)(4)(5)/8
10+-√20/8
10+-2√5/8
x= (5+√5)/4 and x =(5-√5)/4
the parentheses just mean that it is all over 4

Find the number of integral solutions of x+y +z = 12, where −3 ≤ x ≤ 4, 2 ≤ y ≤ 11, and<br> z ≥ 3.
SashulF [63]

There are 59 integer solutions

Such questions are best solved by writing cases and calculating the total number of cases. So beginning with

1)  x = -3. The possible combinations are as follows:-

-3 2 13

-3 3 12

-3 4 11

-3 5 10

-3 6 9

-3 7 8

-3 8 7

-3 9 6

-3 10 5

-3 11 4

10 combinations

2) x = -2

-2 2 12

through

-2 11 3

10 combinations

3) x = -1

-1 2 11

through

-1 10 3

9 combinations

4) x = 0

0 2 10

through

0 9 3

8 combinations

as we can see from the pattern at x =1  we get 7 combinations, at x =2  we get 6 combinations, at x=3 we get 5 combinations and at x =4  we get 5 combinations.

Thus total number of combinations 4+5+6+7+8+9+10+10 = 59 integer solution.

(Algebra II) Extra points!!Determine whether y varies directly with x
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

  • k = 1.6
  • y = 1.6x

Step-by-step explanation:

If the variation is proportional dividing the y-value by the x-value will give the same result for all table entries. That quotient is the constant of variation (k).

Here 6.4/4 = 11.2/7 = 16/10 = 20.8/13 = 1.6

The value of y varies directly as x, and the constant of variation is 1.6. The equation is ...

  y = 1.6x
