|a| = -a if a < 0
The absolute value and the opposite of rational number is equal when a number is negative.
Examples:
|-7| = - (-7) = 7
|-0.5| = - (-0.5) = 0.5
X^2 - 8x + 13 = 0
subtract 13 from both sides
x^2 - 8x = -13
-8/2 = -4, (-4)^2 = 16, add 16 to both sides
x^2 - 8x + 16 = -13 + 16
factor the left side
(x - 4)^2 = 3
Answer: the slope is negative
Step-by-step explanation:
I graphed it and the slope is negative
Answer:
She currently has $10.00.
Step-by-step explanation:
$20.00 - $20.00 + $10.00
$00.00 + $10.00 = $10.00
T = 6 years
Equation:
t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 7.5%/100 = 0.075 per year,
then, solving our equation
t = (1/0.075)((725/500) - 1) = 6
t = 6 years
The time required to get
a total amount, principal plus interest, of $ 725.00
from simple interest on a principal of $ 500.00
at an interest rate of 7.5% per year
is 6 years.
