Let x = baby dinosaurs
     y = adult dinosaurs
equation 1
total paintings = 15 painting x + 7 paintings y
equation 2
baby dinosaurs = 3 times adult
x= 3y
substitute x= 3y to equation 1
y = 4 
x = 12
There are 12 baby dinosaurs and 4 adult dinosaurs in a herd with 208 total paintings

Solve the quadratic equation 3x^2 +x-5=0<br> Give your answer to 2 decimal places
Firdavs [7]

This quadratic should be solved using the quadratic formula.

 

The quadratic formula is

 

(-b +/- sqrt(b2 - 4ac)) / (2a)       (Side note: The +/- means that you use the plus sign once, then recalculate again using the minus sign. You should get two answers this way.)

 

The numbers that we plug into the letters can be found from the general form of a quadratic equation

 

ax2 + bx + c

 

In your quadratic a = 3, b = 1, and c = -5. I'll let you try and solve the rest on your own. Whatever your answer is, round it off to two decimal places.
