16+2x
You can’t simplify anymore since there’s no other variable or whole number.
Answer:
1st, 2nd, and last.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first two common rules can be applied such as
=
and that
and for the last one this is just simplifying the radical and if you factor it you realize that,
meaning that you can take the radical off of 5/8 and end up with that final answer
Answer: 12.3
Step-by-step explanation: It's 12.3 because the other 3 is in the hundredths place and the rule says 5 or more round,4 or less stays the same
Step-by-step explanation:
= √2x × √8x³
= √(2.8x^4)
= √16x^4
= 4x²
Since
represents the number of years passed since 2005, in 2005 we have
, and in 2015 we have
. Let
represent the profits of Jones and Davis, respectively, at year y.
We have


Choosing the best company somehow depends on how much time you can wait: Jones start with a higher value (10 vs 8), but it has a descending trend, because the multiplicative factor
goes to zero as t grows.
On the other hand, Davis starts with a smaller value, but
tends to infinity as t grows.
So, if you need an immediate result, the most valuable company is Jones, otherwise you're certain can Davis will eventually become bigger.
More precisely, we have

So, after 11 years, Davis will overcome Jones.
