Answer:

x_1=1\\x_2=\frac{1}{2} =0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a equation of the form:

ax^2+bx+c=0

The roots of this equation can be found using the quadratic formula which is given by:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

In this case we have this equation:

2x^2-3x+1=0

So:

a=2\\b=-3\\c=1

Using the the quadratic equation :

x= \frac{-(-3)\pm\sqrt{(-3)^{2}-4(2)(1) } }{2(2)} = \frac{3\pm\sqrt{9-8 } }{4}=\frac{3\pm 1}{4}

Therefore the two roots would be:

x_1=\frac{3+ 1}{4}=\frac{4}{4}= 1\\x_2=\frac{3- 1}{4}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}=0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

let a be the number of tennis balls.

let b be the number of tennis rackets.

We write determine the ratio of balls to rackets by dividing the number of balls by the number of rackets:

\frac{a}{b}=\frac{5}3}\\\\a=\frac{5}{3}b

For every one ball, there 5 thirds of a racket.

We plot this function on a graph to visualize our model;

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent of increase can be calculated using following formula:

\text{Percent Increase}=\dfrac{\text{Final Amount-Initial Amount}}{\text{Initial Amount}}\cdot 100\%.

In your case,

  • Initial amount = 12 students;
  • Final amount = 15 students,

then

\text{Percent Increase}=\dfrac{15-12}{12}\cdot 100\%=\dfrac{3}{12}\cdot 100\%=\dfrac{1}{4}\cdot 100\%=25\%.
