2x^2+7x-4=0
Δ=7^2-4*2*(-4)
Δ=49+32
Δ=81
x1=(-7+V81)/4=(-7+9)/4=2/4=1/2
x2=(-7-9)/4=-16/4=-4
the solutions: x1= 1/2 and x2= - 4
Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
just plug two into the equation
Answer:
a = 36, b = 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the terms are in arithmetic progression then there is a common difference d between consecutive terms , that is
b - a = 72 - b ( add b to both sides )
2b - a = 72 → (1)
and
a + b - 72 = b - a ( subtract b - a from both sides )
2a - 72 = 0 ( add 72 to both sides )
2a = 72 ( divide both sides by 2 )
a = 36
-------------
Substitute a = 36 into (1) and evaluate for b
2b - 36 = 72 ( add 36 to both sides )
2b = 108 ( divide both sides by 2 )
b = 54
-----------------
Thus a = 36 and b = 54
The sequence is therefore 36, 54, 72, 90 , .....
Answer: 1 1/2

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There were 9 other people there. First you would subtract how much marcus paid from the total (134.03-20.45=113.58). After that you just divide the remaining cost with 12.62 (113.58/12.62=9)
