Answer:
(13 + or - (sign) square root(37)) / 6
Step-by-step explanation:
First search up the quadratic formula which is
x = (- b + or - square root(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a
and to find a, b, and c you need this formula
ax^2 + bx + c = 0 (btw this is the safest solution to finding your answer with a number in-front of a quadratic equation.)
Math:
a = 3, b = -13, c = 11
b = -13, because of the x on the other end of the equation as the equation above "ax^2 + bx + c = 0" you need the zero to proceed to this next step.
Side Note: You only take the number and not the variable, variables are x, y, w, z, or etc.
(- (- 13) + or - square root((-13)^2 - 4(3)(11) ) ) / 2 * 3
13 + or - square root(37) / 6
Answer: the cost of each bush is $15
the cost of each flower is $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of each bush.
Let y represent the cost of each flower.
Portia bought 12 bushes and 30 flowers for $240 to plant in her yard. This is expressed as
12x + 30y = 240- - - - - - - - - - -1
Later, she realized she did not have enough plants and bought 7 more bushes and 10 more flowers for $125. This is expressed as
7x + 10y = 125- - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 12, it becomes
84x + 210y = 1680
84x + 120y = 1500
Subtracting, it becomes
90y = 180
y = 180/90
y = 2
Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes
12x + 30 × 2 = 240
12x + 60 = 240
12x = 240 - 60 = 180
x = 180/12
x = 15
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
48 + 8x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
4 + 
x = 
multiply through by 12 ( the LCM of 3 and 4 ) to clear the fractions
48 + 8x = 9
