Answer:

4 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of families = 2400

No. of cars = 4200

Family : Cars

= 2400 : 4200

= 24 : 42

= 6 x 4 : 6 x 7

= 4 : 7

Answer:

4 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

family : car = 2400 : 4200

Simplify by dividing both by 100 ⇒ 24 : 42

Simplify again by dividing both by 6 ⇒ 4 : 7

Cannot be further simplified as 7 is a prime number

Proof below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Formula

$x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0$

Given quadratic equation:

$5x^2-6x-2=0$

Define the variables:

a = 5
b = -6
c = -2

Substitute the defined variables into the quadratic formula and solve for x:

$\implies x=\dfrac{-(-6) \pm \sqrt{(-6)^2-4(5)(-2)}}{2(5)}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{36+40}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{76}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{4 \cdot 19}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{4}\sqrt{19}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{6 \pm2\sqrt{19}}{10}$

$\implies x=\dfrac{3 \pm \sqrt{19}}{5}$

Therefore, the exact solutions to the given quadratic equation are:

$x=\dfrac{3 + \sqrt{19}}{5} \:\textsf{ and }\:x=\dfrac{3 - \sqrt{19}}{5}$
