Answer:

2 irrational solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

using the quadratic formula:

\frac{ -b \:± \sqrt{b {}^{2} - 4ac }   }{2a}

3x²−x−5=0

where a = 3, b = -1 and c = -5, plug in those values in the quadratic formula

\frac{ - ( - 1)±\sqrt{(1) {}^{2} - 4(3)( - 5) } }{2(3)}

you get two solutions:

\frac{1 +  \sqrt{61} }{6} \:  and \:  \frac{1 -  \sqrt{61} }{6}

both can be written as:

\frac{1± \sqrt{61} }{6}

They are irrational as they cannot be written in the form p/q where p and q are whole numbers (integers)

Two stands at a craft fair sell cone-shaped candles. They are made by pouring wax into a mold. Booth A sells a candle with a rad
frez [133]
In order to compare the amount of wax, you have to calculate the volume of both candles.

Candle of booth A = πr² h/3
A = π * 4² * 6/3
A = π * 16 * 2
A = 32π

Now, Candle of Booth B = π * 5² * 5/3
B = π * 25 * 5/3
B = 41.6π

In short, Booth B sells the candle with more wax.

Hope this helps!
