Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x^4 -9x^3+ 15x^2
-3x^2 ( x^2 + 3x -5)
if you use quadratic formula (see image)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
10x^3 -35x^2 +6x -21
5x2(2x-7) +3(2x-7)
(5
+ 3) (2x-7)
There would be 2034 students competing in 2012.
We can write a simple equation to find this answer. Let X, be the number of students starting in 2012. Then, we multiply by 0.9 and 1.1 to get to 2014. To work backwards, just divide by 1.1, then by 0.9.
2014 / 1.1 / 0.9 = 2034
ΔTXV is an <span>isosceles triangle because ∡T = ∡X therefore TV = VX.
3x - 24 = 2x + 1 |subtract 2x from both sides
x - 24 = 1 |add 24 to both sides
x = 25

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Solve Using the Quadratic Formula
4x^2 + 8x − 5 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions.
−b ± √b^2 − 4 (ac)
-------------------------
2a
Substitute the values a = 4, b = 8, and c = −5 into the quadratic formula and solve for x.
−8 ± √82 − 4 ⋅ (4 ⋅ −5)
-------------------------
2 ⋅ 4
Simplify the numerator.
Raise 8 to the p ower of 2.
−8 ± √64 − 4 ⋅ 4 ⋅ −5
x= ---------------------------
2 ⋅ 4
Multiply −4 by 4.
−8 ± √64 − 16 ⋅ −5
x = -------------------------
2 ⋅ 4
Multiply −16 by −5.
−8 ± √64 + 80
x = -------------------
2 ⋅ 4
Add 64 and 80.
−8 ± √144
x = --------------
2 ⋅ 4
Rewrite 144 as 12^2.
−8 ± √122
x = ------------
2 ⋅ 4
Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming positive real numbers.
multiply 2 by 4
−8 ± 12
x= ------------
8
simplify
−2 ± 3
x= ---------
2
The final answer is the combination of both solutions.
x= 1/2, -5/2
Hope this helped!
Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute x with 3
-4(3) + 4
simplify (multiply)
-12+4
simplify
-8
