The gcf of 25 and 60 is 5
Answer:
hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
solution:
x^2 + 3x + 5 = x + 13
x^2 + 2x -8 = 0
(x+4)(x-2) = 0
x = -4 or x = 2
if x = -4, y = 9
if x = 2 , y = 15
Answer:
Solutions are 2, -1 + 0.5 sqrt10 i and -1 - 0.5 sqrt10 i
or 2, -1 + 1.58 i and -1 - 1.58i
(where the last 2 are equal to nearest hundredth).
Step-by-step explanation:
The real solution is x = 2:-
x^3 - 8 = 0
x^3 = 8
x = cube root of 8 = 2
Note that a cubic equation must have a total of 3 roots ( real and complex in this case). We can find the 2 complex roots by using the following identity:-
a^3 - b^3 = (a - b)(a^2 + ab + b^2).
Here a = x and b = 2 so we have
(x - 2)(x^2 + 2x + 4) = 0
To find the complex roots we solve x^2 + 2x + 4 = 0:-
Using the quadratic formula x = [-2 +/- sqrt(2^2 - 4*1*4)] / 2
= -1 +/- (sqrt( -10)) / 2
= -1 + 0.5 sqrt10 i and -1 - 0.5 sqrt10 i
Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
If;
5 gallons = $12.50 / 5 = $2.50/gallon
11 gallons = $26.40 / 11 = $2.40/gallon
In conclusion, 5 gallons cost more per gallon than 11.
