  • Cost = $40, Price = $5 per candle

<u>Profit, if equal per x candles is:</u>

  • 3x - 20 = 5x - 40
  • 5x - 3x = 40 - 20

Find the value of k and x2<br> x^2+ 13x + k = 0, x1=-9
Anarel [89]

Given:

The quadratic equation is:

x^2+13x+k=0

x_1=-9

To find:

The value of k and x_1.

Solution:

We have,

x^2+13x+k=0                ...(i)

Putting x=-9, we get

(-9)^2+13(-9)+k=0

81-117+k=0

-36+k=0

k=36

Putting k=36 in (i), we get

x^2+13x+36=0

Splitting the middle term, we get

x^2+9x+4x+36=0

x(x+9)+4(x+9)=0

(x+9)(x+4)=0

x=-9,-4

Here, x_1=-9 and x_2=-4.

Therefore, the required values are k=36 and x_2=-4.
