To effectively determine the correct answer, it would be helpful to write this into an algebraic expression. We let x as the number. We do as follows:
<span>Four times the square of a certain number increased by 6 times the number equals 108.
4x^2 + 6x = 108
The numbers can be either of the following since the equation generated was a quadratic equation which has two roots.
x = 4.5
x = -6 </span>
If she starts with 55000 per year, and she get 1700 per year extra, after fifteen years this extra will be 1700*15, or 25500. Add this to her original salary of 55000 per year to get $80500.
-square root 3 over 3
