You said that (xy) = 16, and (x+y) = 4 .
From the second equation you can get [ x = 4 - y ],
then substitude that for 'x' in the first equation, and
finally, rearrange the first equation to read
<u>x² - 4x + 16 = 0</u>
Don't even try to factor that quadratic equation. Go straight
to the quadratic formula, and the two solutions you find are ...
<em>x = 2 + i 2√3</em>
and
<em>x = 2 - i 2√3</em> .
Those are the two number that do what you want.
There are no <u>real</u> numbers that can do it.
A square has 4 sides.
If the perimeter around the square is 12cm, then you do 12 ÷ 4, which is 3.
Each side is 3cm long.

Answer:
0.054
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the compound formula A=P(1+r/n)^nt we can plug in the numbers we know. A being the total, P the initial amount, n is the number of compounds in a year, and t is the number of years passing. So 10300= 4900(1+ r/2)^2(14). We have to isolate r in order to find the rate. We can divide both sides by 4900, giving us 103/49= (1+ r/2)^28. Then we take the 28 square root from both sides. 1.02689= 1 + r/2. Subtract 1 from both sides. 0.02689= r/2. Then multiply both sides by two. r= 0.054.
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
If we consider the original price of the piece of suit is x.
Given that, on Monday during a one day sale, the price of the suit was decreased by 20%.
Therefore, the new price of the suit on Monday is
.
Now, the price of the suit on Tuesday was changed back to the original price i.e. x.
Therefore, the price is increase by (x - 0.8x) = 0.2x from the price of 0.8x.
So, the percentage change in price of the suit on Tuesday is
%. (Answer)
