Quadratic Equations How do I solve a quadratic equation?

Mathematics

There are different ways to solve a quadratic equation, the main ones that i'm thinking about right now are:
1) factor the equation as a product:
 ex:        x^2+ 4x + 3 =0
             (x+3) (x+1) = 0
              x=-3 and x=-1 are the solutions.
To find (x+p) and (x+q) you have to think that (p+q )have to be equal to the number that is multiplied by x, in my example it was 4 (3+1=4), (p times q) have to be equal to the last number of the quadratic equation, the one that is not multiplied by any x, that in my example is 3 (3 x 1= 3)

2) The other way to solve a quadratic function is by using a formula:
    given: ax^2 +bx +c=0
    x= (-b +/- <span>√(b^2 -</span> 4ac)) / 2a
    
 ex: 3x^2 + 4x -2=0
    x= (-4 +/- √16-4(3)(-2)) / 6= (-4 +/- √16+24)/6= (-4 +/- <span>√40) / 6
now there are 2 possibilities: x= (-4+</span><span>√40) /6
                                                        and
                                              x= (-4 - </span><span>√40) / 6
I hope the examples were clear enough also if i did't get very nice numbers. Look closely to the sings + and -, they are very important</span>

Basically your negatives beside each other turn into a positive because two negatives equals a positive

Match each number in scientific notation with the number written in standard form and in a step by step process.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

1) Option 3

2) Option 1

3) Option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Match each number in scientific notation with the number written in standard form and in a step by step process.

Solution :

From scientific to standard we expand the power of 10.

1) 6.82\times 10^7

Remove decimal and open the power,

6.82\times 10^7=\frac{682}{100}\times 10000000

6.82\times 10^7=68200000

Therefore, 6.82\times 10^7=68,200,000

Match with Option 3.

2) 6.82\times 10^{-6}

Remove decimal and open the power,

6.82\times 10^{-6}=\frac{682}{100}\times \frac{1}{1000000}

6.82\times 10^{-6}=\frac{682}{100000000}

Therefore, 6.82\times 10^{-6}=0.00000682

Match with Option 1.

3) 6.82\times 10^6

Remove decimal and open the power,

6.82\times 10^6=\frac{682}{100}\times 1000000

6.82\times 10^6=6820000

Therefore, 6.82\times 10^6=6,820,000

Match with Option 2.
