Y=x^2+2x-3. what is the quadratic equation and identify its solution.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleks [24]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x=-3, and x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x you must set y to 0, since the solutions for x only exist when y is zero (the x intercepts)

0=x^2+2x-3

There are a couple of ways you can solve this quadratic equation

- by factoring

- by completing the square

- by the quadratic formula

Factoring is the simplest option in this case

the product of two numbers equals -3

the sum of the two numbers is 2

You can tell that the two numbers are 3 and -1

Now, you can factor the equation

(x+3)(x-1)=0

So the solutions are x=-3, and x=1

8090 [49]

Answer:

219 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

3% of decreasing rate of employees per year is calculated thus:

3\% \: of \: 810 \: employees

=  \frac{3}{100}  \times 810

= 24.3 \: employees \: per \: year

In 9 years,

= 24.3 \times 9

= 218.7 = 219 \: employees

Therefore, the number of employees for a certain company where decreasing rate of employees is 3% and continued to decrease for 9 years; and 810 employees are currently working is 219 employees. By implication, 810 + 219 = 1029 employees were working in the company 9 years ago.
