How do you solve 3x2+n−44=0?
1 Answer
It is impossible to solve, so the best option is to isolate.
Explanation:
You can't solve this equation because there are two variables.
With more than one variable undefined, there can be an infinite amount of possibilities. E.g.:
3x2+n−44=0
3(2)2+(32)−44=0
12+32−44=0
Or we can sub in...
3x2+n−44=0
3(5)2+(~31)−44=0
75−31−44=0
As you can see, there is an unlimited amount of variables that we can have. Unless we restrict one of them to a set value, then it is impossible to solve. The only thing we can do is to isolate and solve for that.
However, solving implies we determine the exact value of a variable, in which we can't do that here.
If we were to isolate, it would be like this:
3x2+n−44=0
3x2=44−n
x2=n−443
x=(n−443)2
And for
3x2+n−44=0
3x2+n=44
n=44−3x2
Hope this helps :)
