A quadratic equation is set up in the form of ax² + bx +c
First set equation = to 0
0= x² - 5x - 24
Next plug into quadratic formula( -b Plus or minus the √b²-4ac) ÷ 2a
[10 plus or minus √(25² - 4×1×24)] ÷ 2
Solve for inner parenthesis first
√625- 96 = √529
Now set up two equations
(10 + √529) ÷2 = x = 16.5
(10 - √529) ÷2 = x = -6.5
So therefore x = 16.5 and -6.5
Answer:
(- 1, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = 3x + 4 → (1)
y = x + 2 → (2)
Substitute y = 3x + 4 into (2)
3x + 4 = x + 2 ( subtract x from both sides )
2x + 4 = 2 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
2x = - 2 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = - 1
Substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y
Substituting x = - 1 into (2)
y = - 1 + 2 = 1
Solution is (- 1, 1 )
<span>A = 4.7 + C
where A represents the students who got A's, and C is the number of hours that the C-grade students spent on homework per week</span>
19% of 30
19 / 30 = 5.7
19 percent of 30 is approx. 5.7
