For the first question, x = 4
I hope this helps you
a=4
b=9
c= -1
disctirminant =b^2-4ac
disctirminant =9^2-4.4. (-1)
disctirminant =97
x1=-9+square root of 97/2.4= -9+square root of 97/8
x2= -9-square root of 97/2.4= -9-square root of 97/8
Answer:
The answer is 7/24.
Step-by-step explanation:
I attached a picture, but I'll try to walk through it here.
1) A negative and a negative makes a positive, so h becomes positive.
2) I added 7/8 to both sides, in order to "isolate the variable", which simply means to get h by itself, on one side of the equation (you'll likely hear it said both ways).
3) I multiplied 7/8 by 3/3, and multiplied -7/12 by 2/2. This is known as a common denominator, which in this case is 24. You can only add and subtract fractions that have a common denominator.
4) Multiply both of the fractions to get 21/24 + (-14/24). "Adding a negative" is the same thing as subtracting.
5) 21 - 14 = 7, and since our denominators are the same, the answer is 7/24.
You can confirm the answer by substituting, or "plugging" 7/24 into your original equation, in place of h.
So, problem statement tells you that 1lb = 16oz and that 1oz = 28.3g. That means that 1lb = 16 * 28.3g = 452.8g
You have three items, convert their weights to grams:1) 800g2) 1.6lb = 1.6 * 452.8g = 724.48g3) 30oz = 30 * 28.3g = 849g
So, sorting from greatest:3, 2, 1, or: 30oz, 1.6lb, 800g.
