Answer:

0.4069 ; 1.843

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Base of parallelogram, b = (2x - 1)

Height = (4x - 7)

Area = 1

Area of parallelogram = Base * height

Area of parallelogram = (2x - 1) * (4x - 7)

(2x - 1) * (4x - 7) = 1

8x² - 14x - 4x + 7 = 1

8x² - 18x + 7 - 1 = 0

8x² - 18x + 6 = 0

Divide through by 2

4x² - 9x + 3 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation :

Using the formula

-b ± √(b² - 4ac) / 2a

a = 4 ; b = - 9 ; c = 3

Plugging in the values :

-(-9) ± √((-9)² - 4(4)(3)) / 2(4)

9 ± √(81 - 48) / 8

9 ± √33 / 8

(9 ± 5.7445626) / 8

(9 - 5.7445626) / 8) = 0.4069

(9 + 5.7445626) / 8 = 1.843

Fiona y sus amigas fueron a una tienda de batidos. Pidieron tres batidos de fresa y dos batidos de proteínas por un total de $ 2
jeka94

Answer:

Un batido de proteínas cuesta $ 5,25.

Step-by-step explanation:

El sistema de ecuaciones descrito al final del enunciado coincide con lo descrito al comienzo del mismo, de modo que podemos concentraron casi exclusivamente en la resolución del sistema en cuestión, la cual se describe a continuación:

Este es el sistema a resolver:

x + 4\cdot y = 25,50 (1)

3\cdot x + 2\cdot y = 24,00 (2)

Donde x es el coste de un batido de fresa y y corresponde al coste de un batido de proteínas:

1) Despejamos x en (1):

x = 25,50 - 4\cdot y

2) Eliminamos x en (2):

3\cdot (25,50 - 4\cdot y) + 2\cdot y = 24,00

76,50 - 12\cdot y +2\cdot y = 24,00

3) Simplificamos y despejamos y:

10\cdot y = 52,50

y = 5,25

Un batido de proteínas cuesta $ 5,25.
