Surface area is 6s^2, so 6(7^2) is 294. The minimum amount would be 294 inches^2 of wrapper paper.

Prove that if one solution for a quadratic equation of the form x 2 + bx + c = 0 is rational (where b and c are rational), then

erica [24]

$x^2+bx+c = (x-r)(x-s)\\
x^2+bx+c = x^2-(r+s)x+rs\\\\
b = -(r+s)\\ c = rs$

Say r is rational. Suppose for a second, that s is not. Then, r+s is irrational. But this contradicts the fact that b is rational.

So, if one root is rational, then the other root is also rational

(x + 1)^2 = 3x – 1 solving Quadratics ?

Deffense [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x + 1)^{2} = 3x - 1 \\ \\ \therefore \: {x }^{2} + 2x + 1 = 3x - 1 \\ \\ \therefore \: {x }^{2} + 2x + 1 - 3x + 1 = 0\\ \\ \therefore \: {x }^{2} + 2x - 3x + 1 - 1 = 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: {x }^{2} - x = 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: x(x - 1) = 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: x = 0 \: \: or \: \: x - 1 = 0 \\ \\ \therefore \: x = 0 \: \: or \: \: x = 1 \\ \\ \huge{ \red{ \boxed{\therefore \: x = \{0, \: \: 1 \}}}}$
