## anonymous one year ago One solution of the equation 6x2 - 19x + 3 = 0 is alt= . What is the other solution? (4 points)

1. anonymous

What is alt = ? I think something's missing in your question.

2. anonymous

its the picture

3. anonymous

So where's the picture then? :)

4. anonymous

my laptop wont let me put up the picture in it

5. anonymous

What does it look like?

6. anonymous

wait, it was an equation

7. anonymous

6x^2-19x+3+0

8. anonymous

is 1 over 6

9. anonymous

that is the solution

10. anonymous

i have to find out the other solution

11. anonymous

12. anonymous

??

14. anonymous

$6x^2-19x+3=0$ So a = 6 b = -19 c=3

15. anonymous

Plug those numbers in the formula.

16. anonymous

So,|dw:1438302867921:dw|

17. anonymous

Solve them. Did you get it?

18. anonymous

Hi! Are you still there?

19. anonymous

it would be kind if you don't keep others waiting :D i am willing to help you.

20. anonymous

and i am so clueless right now

23. anonymous

What is the square root of 289?

24. anonymous

but how do you solve something that is set up like that?

25. anonymous

Check the image I posted. It includes the quadratic formula and how you set up a, b, and c.

26. anonymous

let me grab a better calculator

27. anonymous

28. anonymous

is it 17

29. anonymous

You're right. So now, the equation will be...|dw:1438303786476:dw|

30. anonymous

2/12 is 6

31. anonymous

It is 1/6 not 6. :P

32. anonymous

so x=6

33. anonymous

And what is the other one?

34. anonymous

1/36r

35. anonymous

No. :(

36. anonymous

oh. because i added them like it said

37. anonymous

$\frac{ 19+17 }{ 12 }=\frac{ ? }{ 12 }$

38. anonymous

What is 19+17?

39. anonymous

36

40. anonymous

$\frac{ 19+17 }{ 12 }=\frac{ 36 }{ 12 }$$36\div12=?$

41. anonymous

3

42. anonymous

That's it! :) So if you want to check the other one,$\frac{ 19-17 }{ 12 }=\frac{ 2 }{ 12 }=\frac{ 1 }{ 6 }$

43. anonymous

but that was already given. but for my answer would i type in only 3?

44. anonymous

That's why I said if you want to check. :P If one solution is 1/6, then the other solution is 3.

45. anonymous

ok

46. anonymous

thanks

47. anonymous

you're welcome! what's your class btw? is this pre-algebra?

48. anonymous

no its regular algebra 1
