Answer:
It's like solving a quadratic, but in reverse, and in this case you'll arrive at x2+x−12=0
Explanation:
We're going to go "backwards" with this problem - normally we're asked to take a quadratic equation and find the roots. So we'll do what we normally do, but in reverse:
Let's start with the roots:
x=3, x=−4
So let's move the constants over with the x terms to have equations equal to 0:
x−3=0, x+4=0
Now we can set up the equation, as:
(x−3)(x+4)=0
We can now distribute out the 2 quantities:
x2+x−12=0
Answer:
b = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Subisitute P, a, and c (P = 41, a = 19, c = 19 ) into the equation:
P = a + b + c -> 41 = 19 + b + 19
2. Combine like terms:
41 = 38 + b
3. Isolate the variable by subtratcing 38 from both sides
41 - 38 = 38 -38 + b -> 3 = b
