4x^2 + x + 3 = 0
x = [-1 +/- sqrt (1^2 - 4 * 4 * 3)] / 8 = - 1 +/- sqrt ( --47) / 8
= ( - 1 +/- sqrt47i) / 8 = -0.125 + 0.857i , -0.125 - 0.857i
Answer: no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
24x + 72 = 24x +12
-24x -24x
———————————
72=12
72 doesn’t equal 12 so the answer is no solution
Answer:11
Step-by-step explanation:
Boys : girls=7:1
Sum of ratio=7+1=8
Let them number of girls be y
Then they number of boys=y+66
Total number of pupils=y+y+66
Total number of pupils=2y+66
Number of girls=(girls ratio)/(sum of ratio) x (total number of pupils)
y=1/8 x (2y+66)
Cross multiply
y x 8=2y + 66
8y=2y + 66
Collect like terms
8y-2y=66
6y=66
Divide both sides by 6
6y/6=66/6
y=11
The number of girls is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+c
2=(-4)(1)+c
2=-4+c
c=2+4
c=6
therefore the answer is...
y=-4x+6
