Answer:

The answer is 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

If he earns 20 dollars in 1 hour, then in 1/4 of an hour he will earn:

Since 1 hour=60 minutes

He earns 20 dollars in 60 minutes

There for he will earn (20/60)=1/3 dollars in one minute

1/4 of an hour=(1/4)×60=15 minutes

To get the amount he earns in 1/4 of an hour or 15 minutes,

=(Number of minutes in 1/4 of an hour)×Amount he earns in 1 minute)=(15×1/3)=5 dollars

A student performed the following steps to find the solution to the question x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0. Where did the student go wrong?

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

D In step 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial: x² - 2x - 15 = 0

Step 1: factor the polynomial ⇒ (x + 3)(x - 5) = 0

Step 2: x + 3 = 0 and x - 5 = 0

Step 3: x = -3 and x = 5

x - 5 = 0

Add 5 to both sides:

⇒ x - 5 + 5 = 0 + 5

⇒ x = 5
