The answer to this is a n = a1 + d(n - 1)
I assume your "reasons" mean "roots" or "zeros"
if 3 is a root, plug x=3 in the equation, you can find n:
3²+(n-1)*3+6=0
3(n-1)=-15
n-1=-5
n=-4
Plug n=-4 in the original equation: x²-5x+6=0
factor: (x-3)(x-2)=0
x=3, which we already know
or x=2, which is the value of m+4
m+4=2
m=-2
where is the table???????????????????????????????????????????
Total = 28
Girls. Boys.
4. 3
28/4= 7
7 x 3 = 21
ANSWER = 21
Answer:
a² - 14a - 15 = 0 (quadratic equation)
Emily's age = 15 years
Tuli's age = 15 - 10 = 5 years
Step-by-step explanation:
let
Emily age = a
Tuli age = a - 10
Two years ago their ages will be as follows.
Emily's age = a - 2
Tuli's age = a - 10 - 2 = a - 12
The product of their ages 2 years ago is 39.
(a - 2)(a - 12) = 39
a² - 12a - 2a + 24 - 39 = 0
a² - 14a - 15 = 0 (quadratic equation)
To get a
a² + a - 15a - 15 = 0
a(a + 1) - 15(a + 1)
(a + 1)(a - 15)
a = -1 or 15
we can only use 15 as it is positive.
