Answer:
x1, x2 = 7.73 , 4.27
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the roots of a quadratic function we have to use the bhaskara formula
ax^2 + bx + c
x^2 - 12x + 33
a = 1 b = -12 c = 33
x1 = (-b + √ b^2 - 4ac)/2a
x2 =(-b - √ b^2 - 4ac)/2a
x1 = (12 + √(-12^2 - (4 * 1 * 33))) / 2 * 1
x1 = (12 + √(144 - 132)) / 2
x1 = (12 + √12) / 2
x1 = (12 + 3.46) / 2
x1 = 15.46 / 2
x1 = 7.73
x2 = (12 - √(-12^2 - (4 * 1 * 33))) / 2 * 1
x2 = (12 - √(144 - 132)) / 2
x2 = (12 - √12) / 2
x2 = (12 - 3.46) / 2
x2 = 8.54 / 2
x2 = 4.27
Setup
0.8x + 0.4y = 50
0.1x + 0.2y = 10 - Multiply by -2 and add
get
0.6x = 30
x = 50 mg compound A
.1 (50) + .2y = 10
5 + .2y = 10
.2y = 5
y = 25 mg compound B
Answer:
2) y=5x+13
When in doubt, replace the variable with a number to see if it makes sense
