The equation factors as
.. (x +3)(x +4) = 0
By the zero-product rule, the roots are
.. x1 = -4
.. x2 = -3

Answer:
N = 5; only one rate is possible
Step-by-step explanation:
The values of the sets of chips are ...
12 +9N +8N^2 +4N^3
and
2 +N +N^3 +N^4
We want to find N such that the difference in value is zero:
N^4 -3N^3 -8N^2 -8N -10 = 0
A graphing calculator can show us the roots. There is only one positive real root to this equation: N = 5.
The exchange rate N is 5. Only one rate is possible.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of kilograms of mercury we need to find how to relate density, mass and, volume. For this we shall recall the density formula:

where
is the density,
is the mass and,
is the volume.
We have the density and want to compute the mass so now we want to know the volume of the pool.
The volume of a rectangular pool is given by the fomula:
.
So for our pool
.
.
Our density is in
, so the last thing we need to do before computing the mass is to express the density in
(this is because we want our mass in
and, we have our volume in
).
For the density conversion we have to remember that



so
.
With this we can finally compute mass:



.
