Solve. 3x^2=33x-27

anonymous · Answer

$$3x ^{2}=33x-27$$

anonymous · Answer

try factoring out a 3, that should simplify the rest of it

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

3x^2=33x-27

3x^2-33x+27 = 0 ... get everything to one side

3(x^2 - 11x + 9) = 0 ... factor out 3

x^2 - 11x + 9 = 0/3 ... Divide both sides by 3.

x^2 - 11x + 9 = 0

Now use the quadratic formula to solve for x

anonymous · Answer

you should be able to solve for x now based on jim's working.

You can also use the quadratic formula directly after Jim's second step: a = 3, b = -33, c = 27.  Answers will be the same; arithmetic may be easier if you've factored out any common factors, however.
