Quadratic formula is x = -b+ or- sq rt b^2-4ac / 2a
a=2 b=5 c=-3
-5 +or- sqrt 5^2-4(2)(-3) / 2(2)
-5 +or- sqrt 49/ 4
-5 + 7 /4 = 2/4 = 1/2
-5 - 7 /4 = -12/4 = -3

Factoring a*c is 2*-3 =-6
Factors of -6 that add to 5 are 6 and -1
Split 5x into +6x-1x
2x^2+6x-1x-3 and group
2x(x+3)-1(x+3)
(x+3)(2x-1)=0
x+3=0 gives x=-3
2x-1=0 gives x=1/2

An anthropologist studies a woman's femur that was uncovered in Madagascar. To estimate the woman's height, he uses the equation
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The inequality f>40 represents the length of the femur for which the woman had a height greater than 160cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

h=60+2.5f

Where, h is woman's height in centimeters and f is length of the femur in centimeters.

If woman's height is greater than 160cm, then

h>160

60+2.5f>160

Substract 60 from both sides.

2.5f>100

Divide both sides by 2.5.

f>40

Therefore the inequality  f>40 represents the lengths of the femur for which the woman had a height greater than 160cm.

Can anyone show me how to divide 931/7
Inessa [10]
(You go from left to right)
(Dividend is 931, divisor is 7)
Step 1: Look for a number smaller than 9 that is divisible by 7. 7 is the only one which is smaller than 9 and is divisible by 7. Now that you know 7*1=7, you put 1 above 931 (Dividend)
 Step 2: You subtract that number from the number in tens place. And bring the leftover down.
Step 3: You repeat Step 1 and 2 until either you get a remainder of 0 or the remainder in smaller than the divisor (in this case 7)
(Therefore 931/7=133, quotient=133, remainder=0)
^Hope this helps.
