Match the following equation to the correct situation.
1 answer:
Answer:
The equation given in the question matches the situation C.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. The amount that Cindy paid for books was 15% of p i.e. it is only
B. The amount is given to a charity after saving 15% of p. That means if p is the amount of charity, then there were a savings of 15% of p.
Therefore, the total charity payment after savings = p - 15% of p =
C. The amount that Sandy paid for a shirt with 15% tax on p.
Therefore, if the price of a shirt is p, then total payment of Sandy after tax is = p + 15% of p =
Hence, the equation given in the question matches the situation C. (Answer)

Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic equation in standard form
ax² + bx + c = 0 ( a ≠ 0 )
Then for the equation to have 2 real roots , the discriminant must be greater than zero , that is
b² - 4ac > 0
x² + x + c = 0 ← is in standard form
with a = 1, b = 1, c = c , then
b² - 4ac > 0
1² - (4 × 1 × c) > 0
1 - 4c > 0 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
- 4c > - 1
Divide both sides by - 4, reversing the inequality as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.
c <
