The left denominator is : 100
The right denominator is : 5
| Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 2 | 0 | 2 |
| 5 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
| Product of all Prime Factors | 100 | 5 | 100 |

100
Calculating Multipliers :
4.2 Calculate multipliers for the two fractions
Denote the Least Common Multiple by L.C.M
Denote the Left Multiplier by Left_M
Denote the Right Multiplier by Right_M
Denote the Left Deniminator by L_Deno
Denote the Right Multiplier by R_Deno
Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 1
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 20
Making Equivalent Fractions :
4.3 Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions
Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.
For example : 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent, y/(y+1)2 and (y2+y)/(y+1)3 are equivalent as well.
To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.
L. Mult. • L. Num. -2027x2 —————————————————— = ——————— L.C.M 100 R. Mult. • R. Num. 3799x • 20 —————————————————— = —————————— L.C.M 100
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
4.4 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
-2027x2 + 3799x • 20 75980x - 2027x2
———————————————————— = ———————————————
100 100
Equation at the end of step 4 :
(75980x - 2027x2)
————————————————— - 3146 = 0
100
Step 5 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
5.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 100 as the denominator :
3146 3146 • 100
3146 = ———— = ——————————
1 100
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Step 6 :
Pulling out like terms :
6.1 Pull out like factors :
75980x - 2027x2 = -x • (2027x - 75980)
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
6.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
-x • (2027x-75980) - (3146 • 100) -2027x2 + 75980x - 314600
————————————————————————————————— = —————————————————————————
100 100
Step 7 :
Pulling out like terms :
7.1 Pull out like factors :
-2027x2 + 75980x - 314600 = -1 • (2027x2 - 75980x + 314600)
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
7.2 Factoring 2027x2 - 75980x + 314600
The first term is, 2027x2 its coefficient is 2027 .
The middle term is, -75980x its coefficient is -75980 .
The last term, "the constant", is +314600
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2027 • 314600 = 637694200
Step-2 : Find two factors of 637694200 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -75980 .
Numbers too big. Method shall not be applied
Equation at the end of step 7 :
-2027x2 + 75980x - 314600
————————————————————————— = 0
100
Step 8 :
When a fraction equals zero :
8.1 When a fraction equals zero ...Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.
Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.
Here's how:
-2027x2+75980x-314600
————————————————————— • 100 = 0 • 100
100
Now, on the left hand side, the 100 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.
The equation now takes the shape :
-2027x2+75980x-314600 = 0
Parabola, Finding the Vertex :
8.2 Find the Vertex of y = -2027x2+75980x-314600
Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex . Our parabola opens down and accordingly has a highest point (AKA absolute maximum) . We know this even before plotting "y" because the coefficient of the first term, -2027 , is negative (smaller than zero).
Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.
Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.
For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is 18.7420
Plugging into the parabola formula 18.7420 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :
y = -2027.0 * 18.74 * 18.74 + 75980.0 * 18.74 - 314600.0
or y = 397407.943

x -Intercepts (Roots) :
Root 1 at {x,y} = {32.74, 0.00}
Root 2 at {x,y} = { 4.74, 0.00}
Solve Quadratic Equation using the Quadratic Formula
8.3 Solving -2027x2+75980x-314600 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .
According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :
- B ± √ B2-4AC
x = ————————
2A
In our case:
A = -2027.00
B = 75980.00
C = -314600.00
B2 = 5772960400.00
4AC = 2550776800.00
B2 - 4AC = 3222183600.00
SQRT(B2-4AC) = 56764.28
x=( -75980.00 ± 56764.28) / -4054.00
x = 4.73994
x = 32.74403
Two solutions were found :
- x = 32.74403
- x = 4.73994
