I have gotten this far:
x^2-2x-11=0
-b+or-sq. rt. of b^2-4ac/2a
2+or- sq.rt. of (-2)^2-4(1)(-11)/2
2+or- sq.rt. of 48/2

I can't figure out what to do to simplify the equation after. Since the sq. rt. of 48 is not a real #, what do we do to simplify?

I was at work (a bar) Thurs and it was really slow, no customers, and I was waiting for my buddy to show up with his sister and his brother-in-law. I guess his sister was visiting here from London. So I was just sitting there talking with my manager and he says to me, "What the F is that?"
So I look over and I see this guy with a blue mohawk and piercings everywhere carrying a fake baby. By fake baby I mean a doll. Then the power went out cause it was snowing hard and we couldn't see a thing. And the lights at the back of the bar that are supposed to stay on when there are power failures, did not stay on for some weird reason. Aside from the weird guy with the fake baby, there was nobody else in the bar. We asked if anyone was there and nobody responded. Anyway we managed to find flashlights and tried to see if that guy was still there. We didn't see him. When the lights came back on 5 minutes later, the weirdo wasn't there for sure. We never saw him again. What the heck?

Heres a typical example:

3x+2y=4
5x-2y=18

And

2x+3y=2
8x+3y=17


And

3x-4y=6
5x-4y=2


I dont want to know how to solve them, all I need to know is how do you know weather to + or minus the numbers? like in the last example I know you cancell the 4y to become 0 but what about the 3x and 5x does that minus to? ( + and + = - )

Thanks for the help

A redneck passed away and left his entire estate to his beloved widow but she can't touch it till she's 14.
How do you know when you are staying in a redneck hotel?
When you call the front desk and say I gotta leak in my sink and they reply, Go ahead.
Did you hear that they raised the drinking age to 32 for rednecks?
It seems they want to keep alcohol out of the high schools.
Two reasons why it is so hard to solve a redneck murder.
1) The DNA is all the same
2) There's no dental records
Who invented the toothbrush? A redneck if anyone else had done it..it would have been called a "teeth" brush.
A state trooper pulled over a pickup and asks the driver "Got any I.D.?" the driver replies "bout what?"
Did you hear the redneck governors mansion burned down? Yep, prit near took out the whole trailer park. The library was a total loss, too. Both books went poof...up in flames and the governor hadn't even finished coloring one of them.
Hope you got a chuckle today.
