Answer:

Hi,

a=b+3

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{array}{c||c|c|c|c}&x^3&x^2&x&1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a&b&c\\x=-1&&-1&a+1&-a-b-1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a-1&a+b+1&c-a-b-1\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{c||c|c|c|c}&x^3&x^2&x&1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a&b&c\\x=2&&2&4-2a&2b+8-4a\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&2-a&b+4-2a&c+2b+8-4a\\\end{array}

Thus:

c+2b+8-4a=c-a-b-1

3b-3a=-9

<u>a=b+3</u>

If fernando paid $450 for a netbook that was 75% of the original price what was the original price
Ilya [14]

Answer: 600 dollars


Step-by-step explanation: 75% is 3/4 so you divide 450 by 3 to get 150. So you know for 1/4 the price is 150 dollars. Now that you know that you can multiply 150 4 times to get the full amount. 150*4=600

Andrew uses 630 one-inch unit cubes to completely fill the inside of a rectangular box. Which could be the dimensions of the box
dsp73

we have 630 one-inch unit cubes and we want to completely fill the rectangular box (unknown dimensions).

If all the cubes are fitted tightly inside rectangular box without living any space, then box volume would be equal to cubes volume.

There are 630 one-inch unit cubes, so volume of cubes = 630 cubic inches.

Now the volume of rectangular box would also be 630 cubic inches.

We know the formula for volume of rectangular box = length × width × height.

So we need to find any three positive integers whose product is 630.

Out of all given choices, only option A satisfies the condition of factors of 630.

Hence, option A i.e. (7 in x 9 in x 10 in) is the final answer.

Mike is working on solving the exponential equation 37^x = 12; however, he is not quite sure where to start.
Rainbow [258]

The solution of the given exponential equation is 0.688.

Given that Mike is working on solving the exponential equation 37ˣ = 12.

An exponential equation is an exponential equation where the power (or)  part of the exponent is a variable.

firstly, we have to slve this equation is by converting it to logarithmic form. Any exponential equation can be transformed into an equivalent logarithmic equation as follows:

aˣ = y

logₐy = x

Now, we will apply this transformation to our equation and we get

log₃₇12=x

Further, we will apply the change of base formula so that solution is written in terms of base 10 logs:

x=log12/log37

So, this is an exact answer to given equation, but we can simplify it further by using decimal approximation of it using a calculator. Remember that these logs are base 10:

x≈1.079/1.568

x=0.688

Hence, the solution of the given exponential equation 37ˣ=12 is 0.688.
