Solve quadratic equation by factoring x^2-6x+9=0

1 answer:

7 0

What you have to find is what numbers add to -6 and multiply to 9. these numbers would be -3 and -3 (-3+-3=-6, -3*-3=9). substitute these in for -6x as x^2-3x-3x+9=0. then factor out c and three to get x(x-3)-3(x-3)=0. x-3=0 in both cases, so x is three.

Kathy Parker's employer pays 65% of the total cost of her $5,489 health insurance premium. What is her biweekly deduction for th

zzz [600]

Answer:

$73.89

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Kathy Parker's employer pays 65% of the total cost of her $5,489 health insurance premium.

This means Kathy pays 35% of her health insurance premium.

Let us find 35% of $5489.

$\text{Amount of health insurance premium paid by Cathy per year}=\frac{35}{100}\times\$5489$

$\text{Amount of health insurance premium paid by Cathy per year}=0.35\times\$5489$

$\text{Amount of health insurance premium paid by Cathy per year}=\$1921.15$

As we are asked to find Cathy's biweekly deduction for the insurance we will divide amount of premium paid by Cathy by 26 as biweekly is paid 26 times per year.

$\text{Cathy's biweekly deduction}=\frac{\$1921.15}{26}$

$\text{Cathy's biweekly deduction}=\$73.89$

Therefore, Cathy's biweekly deduction for the insurance is $73.89.
