$9.98 * 1.095 = (that is tax; for ex. if it was 23.6 percent tax it would be 1.236)
<u><em>$10.93</em></u>
First lets distribute the 5x
5x^2 + 30x = -50
Lets divide every term by 5
x^2 + 6x = -10
To complete the square we have to half the b value, which in this case is 6. Then square it.
Half of 6 is 3, 3 squared is 9
Add that to both sides of the equation
x^2 + 6x + 9 = -1
Find the binomial squared
(x+3)^2 (If you're wondering how i got that please comment)
(x+3)^2 = -1
Take the square root of the equation of both sides
(x+3) = +/- i
x = -3 +/- i
x = -3 - i
and
x = -3 + i
Answer:
i tried it by trial and error, and my work is below.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 9 = 23
subtract 9 from both sides
2x = 14
guess.... lol
x=7
Answer:
192
Step-by-step explanation:
To find how many phones are expected to be defective, we need to represent the values in a fraction.
x = number of defective phones
Now we can solve this using algebra.
To get the value of x we need to multiply both sides by 8000 to leave x alone.
So around 192 cell phones are expected to be defective out of 8000 phones.
