Answer:
x = 4 or x = 0.78
Step-by-step explanation:
9x² – 29x – 28 = 0
2 roots: x = ((-(-29) ± √(-29)² - 4 x 9 x (-28)) / (2 x 9)
= (29 ± √841 + 1008) / 18
= (29 ± 43) /18
x = 72 /18 = 4 or
x = -14 /18 = - 0.78
Answer:
The sum of a number, 1/6 of that number, 2 1/2 of that number, and 7 is 12 1/2. Find the number?
the number is 2.409
Step-by-step explanation:
based on the question;
let the number N
1/6 of N = (1/6)N
21/2 of N = ( 5/2)N
now, the sum of a number (N) 1/6 of that number(1/6)N , (5/2)N and 7 will be expressed as
N + ( 1/6)N + (5/2)N + 7 = 12 1/2
N + N/6 + 5N/2 + 7 = 25/2
find the lcm of the equation
we have;
(6N + N +15N + 42)/6= 25/2
(22N + 42)/6 = 25/2
Using cross multiplication we have
44N + 84 = 150
Collecting the like terms
44N = 150- 84
44N = 106
Divide both sides by 44
44N/44= 106/44
N = 2.409
Answer:
The length in centimeters is (24-x) centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically, we are told that the equation linking the length, width and perimeter is as follows;
2(length) + 2(width) = 48
But in this case, we are told that the width is x centimeters
2(length) + 2(x) = 48
2(length) = 48-2x
length = (48-2x)/2
length = 24 - x
That is Slope Form. They should give you two coordinates and you substitute them in.
