X^(2)-4x-17=0 Please show work step by step

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dimas [21]3 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems here that they are asking us to solve for x

to do this we first need to factor

Since we can't factor this using the normal method we can instead do this

x^2 -4x-17=0

add 4 to both sides as it is a perfect square

x^2 - 4x + 4  = 17 +4

(x-2)^2 = sqrt 21

x-2 = ±  4.58

x -2 = 4.58    x-2 = -4.58

x= 6.58          x=-2.58

Or just say x=2+√21 or x=2−√21

Dan spends 2 5 of his wages on rent and 1 2 on food. If he makes ?430 per week, how much money does he have left?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Dan would be left over with $43 a week.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{5} = 40%

\frac{1}{2} = 50%

Rent: $430 - 40% = $172

Food: $430 - 50% = $215

$215 + $172 = $387

$430 - $387 = $43
