What is quadratic formula?

(-b+_√b2 - 4ac)/2a

100

A + A = 15

A + B = 13

B + C = 10

A + C = ?

A = 7.5, B = 5.5, C = 4.5

A + C = 12

200

X+16x +15

Factor completely

(x + 1)(x + 15)


200

4x2-1

(2x+1)(2x-1)

200

6v3 -16v2 + 21v -56

2v2(3v-8) + 7(3v-8)

=(3v-8)(2v2+7)

200

Use a quadratic equation to get x value

6x² + 11x - 35 = 0

x = 5/3 or x = -7/2

200

If 72 x 96 = 6927, 58 x 87 = 7885, then 79 x 86 = ?

6897

If you reverse the multiplication number, you get this number.

300

63n3 + 54n2 -105n - 90

9n2(7n+6) -15(7n+6)

300

Use a quadratic equation to get x value

6 + 2x2 - 3x = 8x2

x = (1+√17)/-4 or x = (1-√17)/-4

How to get a number 100 by using four sevens (7’s) and a one (1)?

Answer 1: 177 – 77 = 100 

Answer 2: (7+7) * (7 + (1/7)) = 100

400

3x2 + 11x + 10

Factor completely

(x+2)(3x+5)


400

(x+1)2-y2

(x+1+y)(x+1-y)

400

96n3 - 84n2 +112n - 98

12n2(8n-7)+14(8n-7)

=(8n-7)(12n2+14)

=2(6n2+7)(8n-7)

400

Use a quadratic equation to get x value

 -4x² - 7x +12 = 0 

x = (7+-√241)/-8

400

If 1 = 3

2 = 3

3 = 5

then 4 = ? 

4, because ‘four’ has four letters

500

3x- x2y + 6x2y - 2xy+ 3xy- y3

Factor completely

 3x2 - x2y + 6x2y - 2xy2 + 3xy2 - y3

=x2(3x - y) + 2xy(3x - y) + y2(3x-y) 

=(3x - y)(x2 + 2xy + y2)

=(3x - y)(x + y)2

500

4-(x+2)2

4-(x2+4x+4)

=4-x2-4x-4

=-x2-4x

=-x(x+4)

500

9mz - 4nc + 3mc - 12nz

3m(3z + c) - 4n(c + 3z) =

(3z + c)(3m - 4n)

500

Use a quadratic equation to get x value

1/3x2 + 6x = x2 + 1/4

(Simplify the answer)

(72+-√5088)/16

= (18 +-√318)/4

500

1 + 4 + 8 = 9

4 + 7 - 1 = 8

1 + 1 + 3 + 5 = 6

6 + 9 - 1 - 4 = ?

12 + 42 + 82 = 92

42+ 72 - 12 = 82

12 + 12 + 32 +52 = 62

62 + 92 - 12 - 42 = X2

X2 = 100, X = 10
