Answer:
There are two complex roots.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the discriminant is a negative number, the parabola will not intersect the x-axis. This means that there are no solutions/two complex solutions.
Angle is x. sup - adds up to 180. comp adds up to 90
180-x = 3(90-x)+40
180-x = 270-3x+40
180-x = 310-3x
180+2x = 310
2x = 130
x=65
Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price = x
Sale = 20% off
20% / 100 = 0.2 to convert from a percent to a decimal
Sale = x - 20% of x = x - 0.2x = 0.8x
Sale price = y = 0.8x
Reduction of sale prices = 25% = 0.25
Reduction = y - 25% of y = y - 0.25y = 0.75y
End price in terms of original price (x):
0.75y = 0.75(0.8)x
= 0.6x
End price = 0.6 or 60% of original price, coming out to a 100-60 = 40% overall percentage reduction
Part A: Kennedy's expression is incorrect because 0.07 is 7 percent, not 70.
Part B: The correct expression would be 0.7 * 20, which equals 14
