You are factoring, I presume? Do you know the quadratic formula?
yes \[\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^2-4(a)(c)} ? }{ 2(a) }\]
So your a = -6, your b = 5, and your c = 3. Right? So fill them in.
I did this three times and got the same factors all three times and none of them are your answers. I want to see what you get.
Awe heck im suck at math thats why Im here to try and get help
ok, but did you maybe copy something wrong? Either the equation or the answers? The first choice in your answers is a bit skewed. Check your typing and let me know. Ok? We can help you.
If you can remember that quadratic formula, that's over half the battle here. The other half is getting the answers and equations correct. So check that for us.
This work?
Way better! Are you working on this one now?
trying but I'm stuck math is extremely difficult for me I have a TBI
I don't know what that is, but I can help you anyways, ok? Let's use that equation and fill in the quadratic formula with a = -5, b = 4, c = 9, ok?
Traumatic Brain Injury ok
\[\frac{ -4\pm \sqrt{(4)^{2}-4(-5)(9)} }{ 2(-5) }\]
Im an Injure Marine
injured*
You'll get it; like I said you remembered the quadratic formula. That's a good thing! Sorry to hear you got hurt. : (
8+180?
\[\frac{ -4\pm \sqrt{16+180} }{-10 }\]
188/-10?
Be careful...4 squared is 16 not 8.
\[\frac{ -4\pm \sqrt{196} }{ -10 }\]
now divide that by 10?
the square root of 196 has a perfect square in it...14. So that means we have this now: (it's a -10, don't forget)\[\frac{ -4\pm14 }{ -10 }\]
There are two solutions in there now:\[\frac{ -4+14 }{ -10 }\]and\[\frac{ -4-14 }{-10 }\]
That plus/minus sign is what gives you the two different--very different--solutions we get for the zeros.
\[\frac{ -4+14 }{ -10 }=\frac{ 10 }{-10 }=-1\]
\[\frac{ -4-14 }{ -10 }=\frac{ -18 }{ -10 }=\frac{ 9 }{ 5 }\]
so how does the choices I gave you come into play?
well, let's divide 9 by 5 and see what we get. 9/5 = 1.8. So we have x = -1.00 and x = 1.8
See it there?
right I got 1.8
Cool! See! Not too bad...just keep your positives and negatives in order and you'll do a fine job!
Im saying but that is no where on the choice you seen the file right?
nvm sorry
Right...it's the last choice on the second screenshot you sent. {-1.00, 1.80}
you leave me :-(
