-2x^2 + 3x - 9 = 0
The quadratic is not factorable so quadratic formula must be used.
x = (-b + - √(b^2 - 4ac))/2a
a = -2, b = 3, c = -9
x = (-3 + - √(9 - 4*-2*-9))/-4
x = (-3 + - √(-63))/-4
x = -3 + - 3i√7
--------------
-4
x = 3 + 3i√7 x = 3 - 3i√7
------------ ------------
4 4
40% of 400 would be 160.
40% is 0.4
so
0.4*400 = 160
to prove my work
400/160 = 0.4 = 40%
Area of rhombus = 0.5 x D1 x D2
Thus,
Area = 0.5 x 30 x 18
= 270 units ^2
4p - 2 when p=8
(4 x 8) - 2
32 - 2
30
answer: 30
hope it helped :)
