There are six coins already in pocket, but let’s say we don’t know it.
We would figure it out by reversing the problem. Let’s start with twenty-nine. We would subtract 5, because we are reversing. Now we have 24. Now, let’s divide by four. We would get 6.
A simpler answer would be 29 - 5 [divided by] 4 = [answer]
3x² - 2x + 7 = 0.
Using method of completing the square.
3x² - 2x = 0 - 7
3x² - 2x = -7 Divide through by 3.
x² - 2/3x = -7/3 ...........(d)
Coefficient of x = -2/3, half of it = 1/2*-2/3 = -1/3 square of it = (-1/3)² = 1/9
We add (1/9) to both sides of equation (d)
<span>x² - 2/3x = -7/3
</span>
<span>x² - 2/3x + 1/9 = -7/3 + 1/9
We factorize it by making using of half of the coefficient, -1/3
</span>
(x - 1/3)² = -7/3 + 1/9
<span>(x - 1/3)² = -20/9
</span>
That's the answer as asked by the question. -20/9
