Step-by-step explanation:
b^2-4b+3=0
b²-3x-b+3=0
b(b-3)-1(b-3)=0
(b-3)(b-1)=0
either
b=3 or b=1
.
2n^2 + 7 = -4n + 5
2n²+4n+7-5=0
2n²+4n+2=0
2(n²+2n+1)=0
(n+1)²=0/2
:.n=-1
.
x - 3x^2 = 5+ 2x - x^2
0=5+ 2x - x^2-x +3x^2
0=5+x+2x²
2x²+x+5=0
comparing above equation with ax²+bx +c we get
a=2
b=1
c=5
x={-b±√(b²-4ac)}/2a ={-1±√(1²-4×2×5)}/2×1
={-1±√-39}/2
A) Action: multiply both sides by 4.
Have a look:
(x/4)x4=16x4
x=64
As you can see, the value of x can be found by multiplying 4 on both sides.
Hope I helped :)
We can represent the cost of the notebooks with by saying 0.75n, and the cost of the pens by saying 0.55p.
0.75n+0.55p will be the total cost before tax. Now, we need to add on tax. Tax will be 0.0625 times the total amount, so we can represent the cost by saying
(0.75n+0.55p) + 0.0625(0.75n+0.55p), so the answer is B.
The two numbers are 5 and 12.
