Answer:
what grade you in do you even do your work this easy is b
A.
To solve, you need to get the variable by itself.
Order of operations:
Square root both sides.
(x-5)= plus/minus root 3, as 3 is not a perfect square.
Now you need to add 5 to both sides to get it to disappear on the side with the x.
x=root3 +or - 5, which can be rearranged so that 5 is the first term.
Answer:
0 People initially had the cold.
6 People will have it after 2 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many people had it initially, plug 0 in for x (implying 0 days later.)
C= 1*3(0)
C= 1*0
C=0
Nobody had the cold initially.
To find out how many people had it after 2 days, plug 2 in for x. (implying 2 days later.)
C= 1*3(2)
C= 1*6
C=6
Therefore 6 people had the cold after 2 days.
I hope this helps!
