Solve the equation 4x^2-12x+3=0 by completing the square

Mathematics

White raven [17]2 years ago

Answer:

3/2 + 1/2 √6 or 3/2 + -1/2 √6

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 3 from both sides.

4x2−12x+3−3=0−3

4x2−12x=−3

Since the coefficient of 4x^2 is 4, divide both sides by 4.

4x2−12x/4 = −3/4         x2−3x= −3/4

The coefficient of -3x is -3. Let b=-3.

Then we need to add (b/2)^2=9/4 to both sides to complete the square.

Add 9/4 to both sides

x2−3x + 9/4 = −3/4 + 9/4

x2−3x + 9/4 = 3/2

Factor left side.

(x−3/2)2 = 3/2

Take square root.

x−3/2 = ± √3/2

Add 3/2 to both sides.

x−3/2 + 3/2 = 3/2 ± √3/2

x = 3/2 ± √3/2

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The steps to construct a a line parallel to another line from a point includes

1) From the given line draw a transversal through the point

2) With the compass, copy the angle formed between the transversal and the given line to the point P

3) Draw a line through the intersection of the arcs of the angle construction to get the parallel line through the point P

At a store, customers are randomly selected to participate in a survey. On Friday, there were 500 customers at the store. Out of
Svetlanka [38]
Divide the number of people selected by the total number of people.

90/500 = .18

This means that 18% of the customers were selected for the survey.

If the probability is the same on Saturday, then we can multiply the expected customers by our .18

700 x .18 = 126

126 should be selected for the survey on Saturday.

Suppose xy=−4 and dy/dt=−3. Find dx/dt when x=−1.
user100 [1]
When x=-1: \quad (-1)y=-4\qquad\to\qquad y=4\)

Ok that gives us a little more information.
If we implicitly differentiate with respect to t, from the very start, then we can apply our product rule, ya?

x'y+xy'=0

The right side is zero, derivative of a constant is zero.
Where x' is dx/dt and y' is dy/dt.

From here, plug in all the stuff you know:
y' = -3
x = -1
y = 4

and solve for x'.

Hope that helps!
