Answer:

Jada and lin are comparing inches and feet.

Let I denote inches and F denote feet.

It is given that

I =k F or F=m I

So, I/F=k or m=F/I

As we know 1 feet = 12 inches

constant of proportionality i.e k=1/12

In case 2, constant of proportionality=12/1=12

So, Jada must have calculated ratio of feet to inches while Lin has calculated the ratio of inches to feet.

a_sh-v [17]

The answer is either $x=\frac{-1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2005}\\$ or $x=\frac{-1}{2}+\frac{-1}{2}\sqrt{2005}$

To solve: Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5x2+5x−x2−x=2004

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4x2+4x=2004

Step 2: Subtract 2004 from both sides.

4x2+4x−2004=2004−2004

4x2+4x−2004=0

Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=4, b=4, c=-2004.

x= −b±√b2−4ac /2a

x= −4±√32080 /8

$x=\frac{-1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{2005}\\$ or $x=\frac{-1}{2}+\frac{-1}{2}\sqrt{2005}$
