Answer:
a = 1/2 (1 ±sqrt(47))
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2-a+12=0
We will complete the square
Subtract 12 from each side
a^2-a+12-12=0-12
a^2-a=-12
The coefficient of a = -1
-Divide by 2 and then square it
(-1/2) ^2 = 1/4
Add it to each side
a^2 -a +1/4=-12 +1/4
(a-1/2)^2 = -11 3/4
(a-1/2)^2= -47/4
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((a-1/2)^2) =sqrt(-47/4)
a-1/2 = ±i sqrt(1/4) sqrt(47)
a-1/2= ±i/2 sqrt(47)
Add 1/2 to each side
a-1/2+1/2 = 1/2± i/2 sqrt(47)
a = 1/2± i/2 sqrt(47)
a = 1/2 (1 ±sqrt(47))
1230 in five minutes Just multiply 6 * 41 to get to minutes format, then multiply by five make it five minutes. To get the second answer just divide it by two, which would make it 615.
Hope this helps!
