to do this you can either just factor it out (if it is factorable) or use quadratic formula. since it's factorable, (x + 4)(x - 3) = 0, thus x = -4 and x = 3 using quadratic formula: x = [-b +- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)]/(2a) where a = numerical coefficient of x^2 b = numerical ...

I am having trouble with these. I don't even know where to start: Find the exact solutions to 6x^2+x+4=0 By using the Quadratic Formula. Find the value of the discriminant for 9x^2+1=6x. Then describe the number and type of roots for the equation. Thanks =)

Quadratic Equations
two consecutive integers: x and x+1 <the sum of whose squares is 1 more than twelve times the larger..> x^2 + (x+1)^2 = 12(x+1) + 1 expand and solve as a quadratic equation. (see if you can come up with 6,7 or -1,0 )

by inspection, x=-3 is a solution. -27+72-30-15=0 so, divide (x+3) into x^3+8x^2+10x-15 and get the quadratic. Then solve it with the quadratic equation. I get x^2+5x-5 check that.

LOL lots of ways. If it is quadratic, use the quadratic equation. Try to factor it. If (ax+b)is a factor then it is zero when x = -b/a Graph it and look for crossings of the x axis. etc

A = Area F = Fencing W = Width L = Length A = W * L = 650 m ^ 2 W * L = 650 Divide both sides by L W = 650 / L F = 2 W + 2 L = 2 ( W + L ) = 110 m 2 ( W + L ) = 110 Divide both sides by 2 W + L = 110 / 2 W + L = 55 650 / L + L = 55 Multiply both sides by L 650 + L * L = 55 L ...

are you solving -4x^3 + 15x^2 - 1 = 0 ? then 4x^3 - 15x^2 + 1 = 0 to solve cubics I use this webpage cubic equation calculator, since there is no easy way to do this. http://www.1728.com/cubic.htm It showed that x = -1/4 is a solution, so divide 4x^3 - 15x^2 + 1 by (4x+1) to ...

if x=3, then f(x)=0, so put in x=3 into f(x)=0 and solve for b. Now that you know b, you can divide out the factor (x-2) and are left with a quadratic 3x^2+ ... which if =0, then you can factor or use the quadratic equation to find those two roots.

I wouldn't factor it to get the solutions. I would use the quadratic formula. p= (-84 +- sqrt (7056+2345)/-6 p= (-84 +- 102.53)/-6 p=31 or p=-3.09 Now factoring.. (3p-93)(p+3.09) check that, of course I rounded in the quadratic...

The equation is in the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 -3x^2 + 7x = 0 So, a = -3, b = 7, and c = 0 b^2 - 4ac = 49 - 0 = 49 The square root of a positive number is a real number, so there are 2 real solutions by the quadratic formula.

Are you confusing the word equation for formula? The formula is Al(NO3)3. There is no "equation" unless you want an equation for the formation of Al(NO3)3.
