Answer: The first day the author reaches 100 days is on day 16.

To solve this problem, you could use a graphing calculator to graph the given equation. Then, determine when this line crosses 100. It crosses when x = 15.539. Therefore, we would have to round up to 16 so it is at least 100.

You could use the quadratic equation to solve: 100 = x^2 -12x + 45

Either you will get 16. If you use the quadratic formula, make sure to only use the positive answer.

Your investments took a 7% plunge (drop) then increased by 8%. Are you ahead by 1%? Explain.
Sav [38]

Answer:

If your investment dropped 7% and then increased by 8% you will not be a percent ahead. The reason being is that the increase is a lower amount and the decrease was on a larger amount.

For example, if you have $100 invested. 100*.07=$7, 100-7=$93 remaining. 93*08= $7.44. 93+7.44=100.44 (a .44 increase from the original number). One percent increase from the original number would have $101.
