Hi:) anyone able to explain how to find the value of a? Thank you:)

a=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached picture for full solution.

Method 1: Substitute x with another number, other than the numbers that you have already tried. Zero is a good number to work with :)

Then, subst. the values of b and c which you have already found into the equation. Then simplify to arrive at your answer.

Method 2: Notice that when you expand the right hand side, only a(x)() can give you a term. Hence, compare the coefficients of on both sides. This method is quite safe since the value of a won't be affected in case the value of b and c is wrong.

i found two solutions,   n = 2 • ± √3 = ± 3.4641

step-by-step explanation:

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
