Your x values are 1.24 and -0.404.
First you need to make the equation equal 0, and you can do this simply by subtracting 5x, so you get
6x² - 3 - 5x = 0
The quadratic formula is (-b +- √b² - 4ac)/2a, where a is the x², b is the x, and c is the value. This means we can just substitute it in.
You find the value of the part inside the square root, which is -5² - 4 × 6 × -3 = 97. Now we can use this to substitute in to (5 +- √97)/12. We can do it with the plus sign, and get 1.24, and then with the subtract sign and get -0.404.
I hope this helps!

So the tower is going to be larger than the shadow but not to large so let work from there and not to large so the only logical answer is d
Let's say that Sagan's age is x and Orion is x + 6 (since Sagan is younger by 6 years).
We know that Orion's age + Sagan's age is 24, so x + x + 6 is 24
2x = 18
x = 9
That means that Sagan is 9, and Orion is 9+6 or 15.
If jimmy made a profit of 15% than u would do 15,000 of 15% and that would be 2,250
but that would be Jimmy's profit
Now, what u would do to get how much the boat was sold, than u would do 15,000-2,250
and the answer will be 12,750
