Answer:
x = 2.36603 or 0.633975
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we want to solve the quadratic equation using the completing the square method.
2x^2-6x + 3 = 0
divide through by 2 first;
x^2 -3x + 3/2 = 0
x*2 -3x = -3/2
Half the x term will be -3/2 and squaring it is 9/4
we add this to both sides
x^2-3x/2 + 9/4 = -3/2 + 9/4
(x-3/2)^2 = 3/4
Finding square root of both sides
x-3/2 = √(3/4)
x = 3/2 ± √(3/4)
x = 3/2 + √(3/4) or x = 3/2-√(3/4)
which becomes
x = 2.36603 or 0.633975
Imaginary number is one that when squared gives a negative result. ... With imaginary numbers, when you square them, the answer is negative. They are written like a real number, but with the letter i after them, like this: 23iThe letter i means it is an imaginary number.
Answer:
12 machines
Step-by-step explanation:
The production rate per machine is 1240/20 = 62
For 1,984 printers it would take 32 machines (1984/62 = 32)
32 needed minus the 20 they already have means they need 12 more machines.
The constant term in the equation is -20 because you will always be subtracting 20 no matter how big x is
5/8 is the difference if u make common denominators
