Solve the equation 4x^2-4x-1=0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dmitrij [34]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  x = (1 ±√2)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can "complete the square" to solve this.

  4x^2 -4x = 1 . . . . add 1

  x^2 -x = 1/4 . . . . .divide by 4 to make x^2 coefficient = 1

  x^2 -x +1/4 = 2/4 . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient: (-1/2)^2 = 1/4

  (x -1/2)^2 = 2/4  . . . . write as a square

  x -1/2 = ±(√2)/2 . . . . . take the square root

  x = (1 ±√2)/2 ≈ {-0.2071, 1.2071}

Virty [35]

The area of the triangle which is formed as described is; 60.

<h3>What is the area of the triangle formed?</h3>

According to the task content, when Point A(5,6) is reflected over the y-axis, the point B formed is; (-5,6) and when reflected over both axis, the point C formed is; (-5,-6).

It therefore follows that the length of segments AB and BC which represents the base and height of the triangle formed are; 10 and 12 respectively.

Therefore, the area of the triangle is; (1/2) × 10 × 12 = 60.
