Answer:
- x = -1/2(1 +√21) ≈ -2.79129
- x = -1/2(1 -√21) ≈ 1.79129
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the middle term is supposed to be 4x.
We can remove a common factor of 4 to simplify this a bit.
x^2 +x -5 = 0
This is of the form
ax^2 +bx +c = 0
where a=1, b=1, c=-5.
__
The <em>quadratic formula</em> gives the solutions as ...

Filling in the given coefficients, we have ...
x = (-1 ±√(1^2 -4·1·(-5)))/(2·1)
x = (-1±√21)/2
The solutions are x = -1/2(1 +√21) and -1/2(1 -√21).
_____
<em>If what you wrote is what you intend</em>, then the equation simplifies to 4x^2 -16 = 0.
Dividing by 4 and factoring the difference of squares gives ...
x^2 -4 = 0
(x -2)(x +2) = 0
These factors are zero (hence their product is 0) for the values x = 2 and x = -2.
The solutions are x=2 and x=-2.
Answer:
1000

Let me know if im right :)
Your answer is 8 to 26
the number of carnations is 8 and the total number of flowers is 26. since you said carnations to flowers it is 8 to 26.
here are the 3 ways to write the ratio:
8 to 26 8:26 8/26
Answer:
Simplifying
6x + -3 = 21 + -2x
Reorder the terms:
-3 + 6x = 21 + -2x
Solving
-3 + 6x = 21 + -2x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '2x' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 6x + 2x = 21 + -2x + 2x
Combine like terms: 6x + 2x = 8x
-3 + 8x = 21 + -2x + 2x
Combine like terms: -2x + 2x = 0
-3 + 8x = 21 + 0
-3 + 8x = 21
Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 3 + 8x = 21 + 3
Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + 8x = 21 + 3
8x = 21 + 3
Combine like terms: 21 + 3 = 24
8x = 24
Divide each side by '8'.
x = 3
Simplifying
x = 3
