The zeros of a quadratic function are found where the graph intersects the x-axis. If the graph interects the x-axis in 2 places, we have 2 real solutions; if the graph intersects--or just touches--the x-axis in one place we have one real solution multiplicity 2; if the graph doesn't go through the x-axis at all we have 2 imaginary solutions. Ours goes through the x-axis in 2 places so we have 2 real solutions. Choice A.
This is the answer step by step
Use vertical pipes around the value.
Example:
abs(-4) = |-4| = 4
a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry = 0.75 x
b) The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Let x be the regular price of the pastry in the bakery
Percentage of discount = 25%
Amount of discount = 0.25 x
The expression to find the sale price of pastry = x - 0.25 x = 0.75 x
Step 2 :
Sale price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.03 = 0.75 x
<u>To find the regular price</u>
0.75x = 2.03
x =
= 2.70
Regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70
Step 3 :
Answer :
a) The expression to find the sale price of pastry = 0.75 x
b) The regular price of the pastry bought by Kimberly = $2.70
Answer:
22.38 g of silicone-32 will be present in 300 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
A radioactive half-life refers to the amount of time it takes for half of the original isotope to decay and its given by

where,
= quantity of the substance remaining
= initial quantity of the substance
= time elapsed
= half life of the substance
From the information given we know:
- The initial quantity of silicone-32 is 30 g.
- The time elapsed is 300 years.
- The half life of silicone-32 is 710 years.
So, to find the quantity of silicone-32 remaining we apply the above equation

22.38 g of silicone-32 will be present in 300 years.
