Answer:
- a=1
- b=1
- c=-4
- x = (-1 ±√17)/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficient of x^2 is "a". That is 1.
The coefficient of x is "b". That is 1.
The constant term is "c". That is -4.
The values of a, b, and c are 1, 1, and -4, respectively.
_____
The solution is ...
x = (-b ±√(b^2-4ac))/(2a)
Filling in the values of a, b, and c, this is ...
x = (-1 ±√(1^2 -4·1·(-4)))/(2·1)
x = (-1 ±√17)/2
To calculate this, we have to establish a proportion :
If 1 gallon of milk is drunk in 3 days,
X gallons will be drunk in 5 days
X gallons = 1 gallon*5days/3days = 1.66 gallons will drink in 5 days.
We can round to the first decimal place 1.66 ≈ 1.7 gallons approximately.
Answer : 1.7 gallons will Brian family drink in five days, approximately.
Hope this helps!
