What are the solutions to the equation
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

C.

x_1=\frac{1}{4}+(\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4})i and x_2=\frac{1}{4}-(\frac{\sqrt{7} }{4})i

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the quadratic function 2x^2-x+1=0 to find the solutions for this equation we are going to use Bhaskara's Formula.

For the quadratic functions ax^2+bx+c=0 with a\neq 0 the Bhaskara's Formula is:

x_1=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4.a.c} }{2.a}

x_2=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4.a.c} }{2.a}

It usually has two solutions.

Then we have  2x^2-x+1=0  where a=2, b=-1 and c=1. Applying the formula:

x_1=\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4.a.c} }{2.a}\\\\x_1=\frac{-(-1)+\sqrt{(-1)^2-4.2.1} }{2.2}\\\\x_1=\frac{1+\sqrt{1-8} }{4}\\\\x_1=\frac{1+\sqrt{-7} }{4}\\\\x_1=\frac{1+\sqrt{(-1).7} }{4}\\x_1=\frac{1+\sqrt{-1}.\sqrt{7}}{4}

Observation: \sqrt{-1}=i

x_1=\frac{1+\sqrt{-1}.\sqrt{7}}{4}\\\\x_1=\frac{1+i.\sqrt{7}}{4}\\\\x_1=\frac{1}{4}+(\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4})i

And,

x_2=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4.a.c} }{2.a}\\\\x_2=\frac{-(-1)-\sqrt{(-1)^2-4.2.1} }{2.2}\\\\x_2=\frac{1-i.\sqrt{7} }{4}\\\\x_2=\frac{1}{4}-(\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4})i

Then the correct answer is option C.

x_1=\frac{1}{4}+(\frac{\sqrt{7}}{4})i and x_2=\frac{1}{4}-(\frac{\sqrt{7} }{4})i

Gianna is paid 90$ for 5 hours of work
mario62 [17]

Answer:

3 1/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find how much she gets paid per hour. We can find this by diving the pay by the hours worked. Let x equal the pay per hour.

90/5=x

We can simplify the fraction by diving both the numerator and denominator by 5

(90/5)(5/5)=x

Do the division

18/1=x

Gianna gets paid 18 dollars per hour.

Now to find how much she needs to work we can divide the money she wants by the pay she gets per hour. Let y be the number of hours she needs to work.

60/18=y

turn into a mixed number

3 1/3=y

She would need to work 3 1/3 hours to make $60

The length of a square is 256m and the breadth is 238m what is the perimeter
Arturiano [62]

The perimeter is 988 meters

Further explanation:

The given square has different length and breadth which means that the given square is a rectangle.

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:

P=2L+2W

Given

Length=L=256m

Breadth=W=238m

Putting the values in the formula:

P=2(256)+2(238)\\=512+476\\=988\ meters

The perimeter is 988 meters.
