Determine the following
quadratic equations have real
roots

1) 3x² - √2x-√3

Step-by-step explanation:

√3 x² - 2x - √3 = 0

√3 x² - 3x + x - √3 = 0

√3 x(x - √3) + 1(x - √3) = 0

(x - √3 ) (√3 x + 1) = 0

x - √3 = 0 , √3 x +1 = 0

x = √3 , x = -1/√3

ending amount = beginning amount / (2^n)

where "n" = number of half-lives (or elapsed time / half-life)

ending amount = 50 mg / (2 ^10 / 5.3)

ending amount = 50 mg / (2 ^ 1.8867924528)

ending amount = 50 m / 3.6981210597

ending amount = 13.5203794557 mg

or about 13.5 mg remain
