Hello!,
First we now they both equal 135
There both in ()
there both addition
I hope it helped!
Given:
1 inch : 18 kilometers
Let us use the ratio and proportion method:
a:b = c:d where ad = bc
0.8 inches is <u>14.4 kilometers</u>
1 : 18 = 0.8 : x
x = 0.8 * 18
x = 14.4 km
1.4 inches is <u>25.2 kilometers</u>
1: 18 = 1.4 : x
x = 18 * 1.4
x = 25.2 km
2.1 inches is <u>37.8 kilometers</u>
1 : 18 = 2.1 : x
x = 18 * 2.1
x = 37.8 km
X/3 = 8/12
12 * x = 8 * 3
12x = 24
x = 2
8/12 = 4/y
8y = 48
y = 6
Answer:
x²+2x-3=0
According to Vieta's formula:
x²-(Sum of roots)x+(product of roots)=0
Sum of roots=-3+1=-2
Product of roots=-3×1=-3
The equation is x²-(-2)x+(-3)=0
x²+2x-3=0
