Answer:

11 4-passenger cars

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' represent the number of 4-passenger cars,then 'x-3' represent the number of 6-passenger cars.

92=4x+6(x-3)

92=4x+6x-18

92=10x-18

92+18=10x

110=10x

x=110/10

x=11

Therefore there are 11 4-passenger cars

Shirley is going to have her home painted. Tim"s painting charges $250 plus $14 per hour. Colorful paints charges $22 per hour.

Advocard [28]

It would take greater than 31.25 hours for Tim's price to be better. So in terms of whole hours it would take at least 32 hours of work for Tim's price to be better.

Harry is trying to solve the equation 0 = 2x2 − x − 6 using the quadratic formula. He has made an error in one of the steps belo

bija089 [108]

<h3><u>Given</u> - </h3>

➙ a quadratic equation in which Harry lagged due to an error made by him, 2x² - x - 6= 0

<h3><u>To solve</u> - </h3>

➙ the given quadratic equation.

<h3><u>Concept applied</u> - </h3>

➙ We will apply the quadratic formula as given in the question. So, let's study about quadratic equation first because we are supposed to apply the formula in equation.

What is quadratic equation?

➙ A quadratic equation in the variable x is an equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0, where a, b, c are real numbers, a ≠ 0.

Now, what is quadratic formula?

➙The roots of a quadratic equation ax + bx + c = 0 are given by $\sf{\:\frac{-b \pm\: \sqrt {b ^ 2 - 4ac}}{2a}}$ provided b - 4ac ≥ 0.

<h3><u>Solution</u> - </h3>

here as per the given quadratic equation,

a = 2, b = -1 and c = -6

putting in the formula,

$\implies\sf{x=\frac{-(-1) \pm\: \sqrt {(-1)^2 - 4(2)(-6)}}{2(2)}}$

$\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 \pm\: \sqrt {1+48}}{4}}$

$\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 \pm\: \sqrt {49}}{4}}$

$\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 \pm\: 7}{4}}$

Solving one by one,

$\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 + \: 7}{4}}$

$\implies\sf{x=\frac{8}{4}}$

$\implies{\boxed{\bf{x=2}}}$

________________

$\implies\sf{x=\frac{1 - \: 7}{4}}$

$\implies\sf{x=\frac{-6}{4}}$

$\implies{\boxed{\bf{x=\frac{-3}{2}}}}$

________________________________

<em><u>Note</u> - Hey dear user!! You haven't provided the solution which was solved by Harry (A.T.Q). Please go through the solution as it will help you to find the error done by Harry.</em>

Hope it helps!! (:
