Answer: 240

Step-by-step explanation: To find 60% of 400, first write 60% as a decimal by moving the decimal point 2 places to the left to get .60.

Next, the word <em>of</em> means multiply. So we have (.60)(400) which is equal to 240. So our answer is 240.

So 60% of 400 is 240.

Keri is simplifying 5·10^−3.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

1. D

2. A

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1. Kerry is simplifying $5\cdot 10^{-3}$

By the definition of negative powers,

$a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}$

Hence,

$10^{-3}=\dfrac{1}{10^3}$

So, the first step in simplifying the expression is

$5\cdot 10^{-3}=5\cdot \dfrac{1}{10^3}$

Q2. Given the expression

$\dfrac{8}{10^{-2}}$

First, use the definition of negative powers:

$10^{-2}=\dfrac{1}{10^2}$

Thus,

$\dfrac{8}{10^-2}=\dfrac{8}{\frac{1}{10^2}}=8\cdot 10^2=8\cdot 100=800$

Solve the equation using the quadratic formula : x^2-10x+25=18

Sever21 [200]

$x^2-10x+25=18 \\ \\x^2-10x+25-18 = 0\\ \\ x^2-10x+ 7 =0 \\ \\a=1 , b = -10 , c= 7 \\ \\ \Delta = b^{2}-4ac = (-10)^{2}-4*1*7=100-28 = 72 \\ \\\sqrt{\Delta }=\sqrt{72}= \sqrt{2*36} =\sqrt{36}*\sqrt{2} =6\sqrt{2}$

$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a} =\frac{10- 6\sqrt{2}}{2}=\frac{2(5-3\sqrt{2})}{2}= 5-3\sqrt{2}\\ \\x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a} =\frac{10+ 6\sqrt{2}}{2}=\frac{2(5+3\sqrt{2})}{2}= 5+3\sqrt{2}$

$Answer : \ x= 5-3\sqrt{2} \ \ or \ \ x = 5+3\sqrt{2}$
