Answer:

x=\frac{-\sqrt{13} -5}{6} or x=\frac{\sqrt{13} -5}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

3x^2+5x+1=0


When we compare to the general quadratic equation,

ax^2+bx+c=0, then we have


a=3,b=5,c=1


The quadratic formula is given by,

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


We substitute the given values into the formula to obtain,

x=\frac{-5\pm \sqrt{5^2-4(3)(1)} }{2(3)}


This simplifies to,

x=\frac{-5\pm \sqrt{25-12} }{2(3)}


This further simplifies to,

x=\frac{-5\pm \sqrt{13} }{6}


We split the plus or minus sign to obtain,


x=\frac{-\sqrt{13} -5}{6} or x=\frac{\sqrt{13} -5}{6}

Answer:

Width = 9 cm, length = 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = w; Length = L

2(W+L) = 46, W+L = 23, W= 23-L

W*L = 126, (23-L)*L = 126

W = 9, L = 14

Answer: x = 5/2 or 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4x = 5/8

To find the value of X;

We multiply both sides by 4

1/4 x × 4 = 5/8 × 4

x = 5/2 or 2.5

Express the solution of, x^3 + 2x^2 < x + 2, using interval notation?
kati45 [8]
X³ + 2x² - x - 2 < 0

x³ - x + 2x² - 2 < 0

x(x² - 1) - 2(x² - 1) < 0

(x - 2)(x² - 1) < 0

(x - 2)(x - 1)(x + 1) < 0

by chacking we get the solution

x ∈ (-∞,-1) ∪ (-1,1)
