8x(x - 6)1/2 + 4(x - 6)3/2 = 0
8x(x) - 8x(6)1/2 + 4(x) - 4(6)3/2 = 0
8x² - 48x(1/2) + 4x - 24(3/2) = 0
8x² - 24x + 4x - 36 = 0
8x² - 20x - 36 = 0
x = <u>-(-20) +/- √((-20²) - 4(8)(-36))</u>
                        2(8)
x = <u>20 +/- √(400 + 1152)</u>
                  16
x =<u> 20 +/- √1552</u>
             16
x = <u>20 +/- √(16 × 97)</u>
                16
x = <u>20 +/- √16 √97
</u>               16<u>
</u>x = <u>20 +/- 4 √97
</u>              16
x = <u>20 +/- 4(9.848857802)</u>
                     16
x = <u>20 +/- 39.39543121</u>
                    16
x = <u>20 + 39.39543121</u>        x = <u>20 - 39.39543121</u>
                  16                                        16
x = <u>59.39543121</u>                x = <u>-19.39543121</u>
              16                                         16
x = 3.71221445                  x = -1.212214451

Sam earned $40 on his investment of $400. He earned 5% interest on his investment. How long did Sam leave his money in the bank?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Amount of interest earned  = $40

Principal  = $400

Interest rate  = 5%

Unknown:

Time taken for the money to be in bank = ?

Solution:

   The formula for interest is given as:

         I = \frac{PRT}{100}  

    Where I is the interest

              P is the principal

               R is the rate

               T is the time

    So;

    100I  = PRT

       T  = \frac{100I }{PR}   = \frac{100 x 40}{400 x 5}  = 2yrs
