Mathematics
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Option C. 65

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The discriminant of a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

D=b^{2}-4ac

in this problem we have

2x^{2} +3x-7  

so

a=2\\b=3\\c=-7

substitute

D=3^{2}-4(2)*(-7)

D=9+56

D=65

The point (0,10) is called a ____-intercepta?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer: y-intercept

Explanation: A point is classified as (x, y) and in order for this ordered pair to be a y-intercept, we need to have the x-coordinate be 0.

Since the x-coordinate is 0, this is a y-intercept.

a. 9/10

explanation:

• the denominators (bottom number) are the same so there is no need to change to a common factor

• because the fractions have common factors, you add the top numbers (3+6) to get 9

• then you put the top number over the 10 (9/10) and it’s simplified as much as possible

b. 3/4

explanation:

• each denominator (bottom term) is a factor of 12 so you have to change each fraction to #/12

• to change 1/3, you multiply the top and bottom numbers by 4 (1x4 & 3x4 = 4/12)

• to change 1/4, you multiply the top and bottom numbers by 3 (1x3 & 4x3 = 3/12)

• to change 1/6, you multiple the top and bottom numbers by 2 (1x2 & 6x2 = 2/12)

• then you add each of the top numbers (4+3+2) and put it over the common denominator (12) to get 9/12

- both 9 & 12 are divisible by 3, so you simply by dividing both by 3 to get 3/4

c. 1/3

explanation:

•the denominators are the same, so you subtract 5-3 without changing the denominator & you get 2/6

• then, because both numbers are divisible by 2, you divide both by 2 and get 1/3

Last year, Susan had 10,000 to invest. She invested some of it in an account that paid 6%
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

In the account that paid 6% Susan invest \$6,000

In the account that paid 5% Susan invest \$4,000

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

I=P(rt)

where

I is the Final Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest  

t is Number of Time Periods

Part a) account that paid 6% simple interest per year

in this problem we have

t=1\ years\\ P=\$x\\r=0.06

substitute in the formula above

I1=x(0.06*1)

I1=0.06x

Part b) account that paid 5% simple interest per year

in this problem we have

t=1\ years\\ P=\$10,000-\$x\\r=0.05

substitute in the formula above

I2=(10,000-x)(0.05*1)

I2=500-0.05x

we know that

I1+I2=\$560

substitute and solve for x

0.06x+500-0.05x=560

0.01x=560-500

0.01x=60

x=\$6.000

therefore

In the account that paid 6% Susan invest \$6,000

In the account that paid 5% Susan invest \$4,000
