Question

Someone help please I'll give a medal.One solution of the equation 6x^2 − 19x + 3 = 0 is 1/6. What is the other solution?

Answer 1

Help please best answer gets a medal!

Answer 2

cant figure it out?

Answer 3

solve 6x^2 − 19x + 3 = 0

Answer 4

Type that in into http://www.wolframalpha.com/

Answer 5

Great answer to find solutions and figure out how to get the answer

Answer 6

does it show work?

Answer 7

Not for these problems

Answer 8

Here is still a great place to get explanations
But do you know how to use quadratic formula?

Answer 9

Oh okay ill see if I can figure it out.
Thank you for your help

Answer 11

Alright sounds good

Answer 12

0 = 6x^2 − 19x + 3

Find a GCF, is there one?

Answer 13

yes
3?

Answer 14

\[\div2a\]

Answer 15

$$6x^2 − 19x + 3 = 0\\x^2-\frac{19}6+\frac12=0$$Note since we have a second-degree polynomial we expect \(2\) roots and therefore solutions to the above equation; recall that our constant is the product of our roots, so if we let \(c\) be our unknown root we have:$$\frac12=\frac16c\\c=3$$

Answer 16

Yes good, so now what do we get?

Answer 17

dam my equations didn't come out

Answer 18

\(-\frac{19}6x\)

Answer 19

thanks everyone for your help I wish i could give multiple medals lol ill give to oldrin.bataku but oldrin could you give it to JA1 thanks guys

Answer 20

No need @Wowzers :) he did all the work, I just corrected @m_sequence1

Answer 21

when they give you a solution you know
x= 1/6
multiply both sides by 6
6x = 1
add -1 to both sides
6x -1 = 0

this means (6x-1) is one of the factors
divide 6x-1 into the original quadratic to find the other factor

Answer 22

thats phi for help but I got it :)
