Step-by-step explanation:

Total share = 54

Le the share of two persons be 5x and 4x respectively so

5x + 4x = 54

9x = 54

Therefore x = 6

Now

5x = 5* 6 = 30

4x = 4* 6 = 24

What are the exact solutions of x2 + 5x + 1 = 0? (5 points)

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

$x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{21} }{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the quadratic formula here which says for a quadratic equation $ax^2+bx+c=0$ .

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

Now in our case

$a=1\\b=5\\c=1$

so we have:

$x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{5^2-4(1)(1)} }{2(1)} =\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{21} }{2}$

$\boxed{x=\frac{-5\pm\sqrt{21} }{2} }$

Which are our solutions.
