Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation: x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0
Here, a = 1, b = 3 and c = -4.
The formula for the discriminant is b^2 - 4(a)(c).
Substituting the given values of a, b and c, we get:
(3)^2 - 4(1)(-4)
Evaluating this, we get 9 + 16 = 25.
The discriminant is 25.
-3 plus or minus √25
Taking this further, x = ------------------------------------
2
-3 plus or minus 5
or: x = -------------------------------- => {-4, 1} (solutions)

I think the answer to this is .6 or 1.7
Answer:
Question #1 It is three dollars of so the cost is $12
Question #2 The answer is 6
Question #3 21.25
Step-by-step explanation:
9x + 1 + 7x - 9 = 5x - 11
16x - 8 = 5x - 11
11x - 8 = -11
11x = -3
-3/11 = x
