<h3>Answer:</h3>
none of the above
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>This question wants you to see that the radical can be simplified because it is ...
The answer choices show you are expected to simplify this to ...
... f(x) = x +6
Then
... f(x)·g(x) = (x+6)(x³ -12) = x⁴ +6x³ -12x -72 . . . . . matches choice C
_____
However,
... f(x) = |x+6| . . . . . . . √(x^2) = |x|, the positive root regardless of sign of x
so the product f(x)·g(x) only matches selection C for x≥ -6. It matches the opposite of selection C for x ≤ -6.
The attached graph shows this. It graphs f(x), g(x), f(x)·g(x) (as a purple curve), and selection C (as orange dots).

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have an amount in the future of 750, we are going to use Future value formula; FV = PV (1+r)^t
where PV= Initial amount deposited
r= interest rate or discount rate
t = total duration of the investment
FV= 750
PV=500
r = 2.5% or 0.025 as a decimal
t = ?
Next, plug in the numbers into the formula;
750 = 500* (1+0.025)^t
divide both sides by 500;
750/500 = 1.025^t
Introduce <em>ln</em> on both sides
ln 1.5 = ln
ln 1.5 = t ln 1.025
0.4054651 = 0.0246926 t
Divide both sides by 0.0246926 to solve for t;
0.4054651/0.0246926 = t
t = 16.42
Therefore it will take 16.42 years
