Answer:
PEMDAS, do multiplication first then, adddition, then subtraction
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -5/2 + i√19 and x = -5/2 - i√19
Step-by-step explanation:
Next time, please share the possible answer choices.
Here we can actually find the roots, using the quadratic formula or some other approach.
a = 1, b = 5 and c = 11. Then the discriminant is b^2-4ac, or 5^2-4(1)(11). Since the discriminant is negative, the roots are complex. The discriminant value is 25-44, or -19.
Thus, the roots of the given poly are:
-5 plus or minus i√19
x = -----------------------------------
2(1)
or x = -5/2 + i√19 and x = -5/2 - i√19
We have to calculate the fraction of Paula`s allowance that she spent on other items if she already had spent 3/8 on clothes and 1/6 on entertainment. First we have to add: 3 / 8 + 1 / 6 = ( LCD is 24 ) = 9 / 24 + 4 / 24 = 13 / 24. Then : 1 - 13 / 24 = 24 / 24 - 13 / 24 = 11 / 24. Answer: She has spent 11 / 24<span> of her allowance on other items. </span>
