3x^2-12x+1=0
Use formula to solve quadratic eqns
Standard form of quadratic eq is ax^2+bx+c
-b(+,-)sqrtb^2-4ac/2a
Now can u find x?
Answer:
6x + 4 = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
6 boxes
x = number of pencils per box
therefore Sam had 6x and received 4 more
This looks like an ellipse.
Complete the square for y: 9(y²-6y-7)=9(y²-6y+9-9-7)=9((y-3)²-16).
Rewrite the equation:
4x²+9(y-3)²-144=0; 4x²/144+9(y-3)²/144=1; x²/36+(y-3)²/16=1.
Standard equation of an ellipse is (x-h)²/a²+(y-k)²/b²=1, where (h,k) is the origin or centre.
This is the equation of an ellipse with centre (0,3), a=6 and b=4 (semimajor and semiminor axes).
20 degrees
vertical angles are equal, so 5x-80=x
solve for x and you get 20
