Use grouping to factor and solve the quadratic equation:
First, multiply
Then list the factors of
The only pair of factors that sums to
is
Rewrite the equation replacing the
b term,
with two terms using 3 and 12 as coefficients of
x . Factor the first two terms, and then factor the last two terms.
Solving a polynomial of higher degree by factoring
Solve the equation by factoring:
This equation does not look like a quadratic, as the highest power is 3, not 2. Recall that the first thing we want to do when solving any equation is to factor out the GCF, if one exists. And it does here. We can factor out
from all of the terms and then proceed with grouping.
Use grouping on the expression in parentheses.
Now, we use the zero-product property. Notice that we have three factors.
When there is no linear term in the equation, another method of solving a quadratic equation is by using the
square root property , in which we isolate the
term and take the square root of the number on the other side of the equals sign. Keep in mind that sometimes we may have to manipulate the equation to isolate the
term so that the square root property can be used.
The square root property
With the
term isolated, the square root property states that:
where
k is a nonzero real number.
Given a quadratic equation with an
term but no
term, use the square root property to solve it.
Isolate the
term on one side of the equal sign.
Take the square root of both sides of the equation, putting a
sign before the expression on the side opposite the squared term.
Simplify the numbers on the side with the
sign.
Solving a simple quadratic equation using the square root property
Solve the quadratic using the square root property:
Take the square root of both sides, and then simplify the radical. Remember to use a
sign before the radical symbol.
Not all quadratic equations can be factored or can be solved in their original form using the square root property. In these cases, we may use a method for solving a
quadratic equation known as
completing the square . Using this method, we add or subtract terms to both sides of the equation until we have a perfect square trinomial on one side of the equal sign. We then apply the square root property. To complete the square, the leading coefficient,
a , must equal 1. If it does not, then divide the entire equation by
a . Then, we can use the following procedures to solve a quadratic equation by completing the square.
is it possible to leave every good at the same level
Joseph
I don't think so. because check it, if the demand for chicken increases, people will no longer consume fish like they used to causing a fall in the demand for fish
Anuolu
is not really possible to let the value of a goods to be same at the same time.....
Salome
Suppose the inflation rate is 6%, does it mean that all the goods you purchase will cost
6% more than previous year? Provide with reasoning.
Not necessarily. To measure the inflation rate economists normally use an averaged price index of a basket of certain goods. So if you purchase goods included in the basket, you will notice that you pay 6% more, otherwise not necessarily.
Good day
How do I calculate this question: C= 100+5yd G= 2000 T= 2000 I(planned)=200.
Suppose the actual output is 3000. What is the level of planned expenditures at this level of output?

money as unit of account means what?
Kalombe
A unit of account is something that can be used to value goods and services and make calculations
Jim
all of you please speak in English I can't understand you're language

I want to know how can we define macroeconomics in one line
Muhammad
it must be .9 or 0.9
no Mpc is greater than 1
Y=100+.9Y+50
Y-.9Y=150
0.1Y/0.1=150/0.1
Y=1500

hi can someone help me on this question
If a negative shocks shifts the IS curve to the left, what type of policy do you suggest so as to stabilize the level of output?
discuss your answer using appropriate graph.
