Question

represent the situation in the form of quadratic equations, a natural number increased by 12 equals to 160 times in its reciprocal​

Answer 1

ANSWER:

The equation is, x²+12x-160=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the natural number, increased by 12 in the sense, add 12, reciprocal of the natural number is 1/x, 160 times of the reciprocal is 160/x. So, the equation would be x+12=160/x

that would be equal to x(x+12)-160=0

that would be equal to x²+12x-160=0
