Answer:
Adults= 110
Children= 340
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
let adults be x
and children be y
x+y= 450----------1
2x+y=680---------2
from 1
x= 450-y
put this in 2
2(450-y)=680
900-2y=680
900-680=2y
220=2y
y= 220/2
y= 110
x+110= 450
x= 450-110
x=340
Answer:
x= -2.........&.........y= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x,y)=(-2,-1)
I really don't know how toowrk it out on paper, I'm afraid. I just looked at it, and somehow knew that the answers are 7 and 9.
Answer:
A: This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two or fewer roots.
B: The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 12x^2 + 5x - 2.
Since this is a quadratic equation, or a polynomial of second degree, one can easily conclude that this equation will have at most 2 roots. At most 2 roots mean that the function can have either 2 roots at maximum or less than 2 roots. Therefore, in the A category, 2nd option is the correct answer (This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0 has two or fewer roots).
To find the roots of f(x), set f(x) = 0. Therefore:
12x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0. Solving the question using the mid term breaking method shows that 12*2=24. The factors of 24 whose difference is 5 are 8 and 3. Therefore:
12x^2 + 8x - 3x - 2 = 0.
4x(3x + 2) -1(3x+2) = 0.
(4x-1)(3x+2) = 0.
4x-1 = 0 or 3x+2 = 0.
x = 1/4 or x = -2/3.
It can be seen that f(x) has two distinct real roots. Therefore, in the B category, 1st Option is the correct answer (The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots)!!!
