Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Although you can start with 4x^2-2x-4=0, it's just slightly easier to reduce the coefficients. 4x^2-2x-4=0 becomes 2x^2 - x - 2 = 0.
The discriminant (part of the quadratic formula) is b^2 - 4ac. Using b = -1. a = 1 and c = -2, we get (-1)^2 - 4(2)(-2), or 17.
-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)
Then the quadratic formula x = ---------------------------
2a
-(-1) ± √17 1 ± √17
takes on the values x = ----------------- = ---------------
4 4
Answer:
-27/8
Step-by-step explanation:
just times than the power -3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
so 20% of the total price equals $ 30
let x represent the total price
turn ur percent to a decimal
0.20x = 30
x = 30 / 0.20
x = 150 <=== total price
X = - 7 - y ( - 7 - y ) y = 12y = - 3 or y = - 4x = - 7 - ( - 3) or x = - 7 - ( - 4)( - 4, - 3)( - 3, - 4)
Neither...
205/1000 equals .205
So they are both the same.
