Question 422595: I'm really confused right now on this problem;
6x^2-12x+1=0
This is what I have done so far,


x=12+ sqrt 12+?/12 <-- The part I'm stuck on
I know I'm almost done and that the answer won't be a nice perfect number
And I used the equation solver thing, but the answer won't help unless I understand how it got there, xD
Anyways
Sorry if I didn't write the formula right,
Thanks in advance too. ^^

Question 423208: Hello, need an explanation on how to find the x intercepts, and the vertex of this equation y is less than or equal to -x^2+3x+2. I do not know how to factor yet, so if we could do it by guessing two points and checking by plugging them into the equation and finding some easy to graph points. Thanks soOoOoOo much!

Question 424078: A trader bought some petrol for $500. He paid $x for each litre of petrol.
a) Find in term of x, an expression for the number of litres he bought,
b) Due to a leak, he lost 3 litres of petrol. He sold the remainder of the petrol for $1 per litre more than he paid for it. Write down an expression, in terms of x, for the sum of money he received,
c) He made a profit of $20. i) Write down an equation in x to represent this information and show that it reduces to 3(x)^2 + 23 x -500 = 0. ii) Solve this equation, giving both your answers correct to one decimal place.
d) Find, correct to the nearest whole number, how many litres of petrol he sold.
*I know it's a long question, but please try to understand I can't put the parts separately because then they wouldn't make sense. Please answer as soon as possible. Much appreciated :) =)
