The percent increase is 48.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Purchase price of used-droid = $2900

Selling price of used=droid = $4300

Profit = Selling price - purchase price

Profit = 4300-2900 = $1400

Percent increase = $\frac{Profit}{Purchase\ price}*100$

$Percent\ increase=\frac{1400}{2900}*100\\\\Percent\ increase=\frac{140000}{2900}\\\\Percent\ increase=48.275\%$

Rounding off to nearest hundredth;

Percent increase = 48.28%

The percent increase is 48.28

What is the solution of the equation over the complex numbers

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

$2i\sqrt{3}$

$-2i\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2 + 12$

First set the equation to 0

$x^2 + 12$

$x^2 + 12 = 0$

Second, get the 12 on the right side of the equal sign by adding a -12 to each side

$x^2 + 12 = 0$

$x^2 + 12 + (-12) = 0 -12$

$x^2 = -12$

Square root both sides of the equal sign.

$x^2 = -12$

$\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{-12}$

Take the square root on left sides of the equal sign.

$\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{-12}$

$x = \sqrt{-12}$

Take the square root on the right side of the equal sign. Remember $\sqrt{-1} = i$

$x = \sqrt{-12}$

$x = \sqrt{4}*\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{3}}$

$x = 2i\sqrt{3}$

AND

$x = -2i\sqrt{3}$
