Let's actually find the roots, using the quadratic formula:
<span>p(x)=x^2+x+3 gives us a=1, b=1 and c=3.
-1 plus or minus sqrt(1^2-4(1)(3))
Then x = -----------------------------------------------
2
The discriminant here is negative, so the roots x will be complex:
-1 plus or minus sqrt(-11) -1 plus or minus i*sqrt(11)
x = ---------------------------------- = -------------------------------------
2 2
These are irrational roots; they cannot be expressed as the ratios of integers.</span>
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
let x = big number
let you = small number
x + y = 215-------> (1)
x - y = 137 ------>(2)
(1)
x = 215 - y ----->(1)
substitute 1 into 2
215 - y -y = 137
-2 y = 78
y = 39
substitute y = 39 into (1)
x = 215 - (39)
x = 176
thus the numbers are 176 & 39
