Per the formula in the related link, substitution into the formula yields (3*12)1/2, which is (36)1/2 or 6.
The quadratic formula is.... -b +/- sqrt(b^2 -4ac)/2a in this problem.... ( 3X^2 + 6X + 2 = 0 ) a = 3 b = 6 c = 2 so..... -6 +/- sqrt(6^2 - 4(3)(2))/2(3) -6 +/- sqrt(36 -24)/6 -6 +/- sqrt(12)/6 since square root 12 is irrational -1 +/- sqrt(12) is the answer
12 + (2 x 3) - 7 = 12 + 6 - 7 = 11
x=(6±sqrt(36-4*6))/2 x=3±(sqrt(12)/2) x=3±sqrt(3)
The expression "12 minus 6 divide 3" simplifies to "12 - (6 ÷ 3)". The division 6 ÷ 3 equals 2, so the expression simplifies further to "12 - 2". Finally, the subtraction 12 - 2 equals 10. Therefore, the answer to 12 minus 6 divide 3 is 10.
