Question:

Mathematics
1 answer:
prohojiy [21]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 3/2 + sqrt(17)/2 or x = 3/2 - sqrt(17)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

x/x - 1 = x - 3 - 2/x

x/x - 1 = 0:

0 = x - 3 - 2/x

0 = x - 3 - 2/x is equivalent to x - 3 - 2/x = 0:

x - 3 - 2/x = 0

Bring x - 3 - 2/x together using the common denominator x:

(x^2 - 3 x - 2)/x = 0

Multiply both sides by x:

x^2 - 3 x - 2 = 0

Add 2 to both sides:

x^2 - 3 x = 2

Add 9/4 to both sides:

x^2 - 3 x + 9/4 = 17/4

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 3/2)^2 = 17/4

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 3/2 = sqrt(17)/2 or x - 3/2 = -sqrt(17)/2

Add 3/2 to both sides:

x = 3/2 + sqrt(17)/2 or x - 3/2 = -sqrt(17)/2

Add 3/2 to both sides:

Answer: x = 3/2 + sqrt(17)/2 or x = 3/2 - sqrt(17)/2

Reptile [31]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Annuity at time (n + 1) = 13.776

(1 + i)ⁿ = 2.476

Now,

S_{n/i}=\frac{(1+i)^n-1}{d}

here, d = \frac{i}{1-i}

thus,

13.776=\frac{2.476-1}{d}

or

d = 0.1071

therefore,

d = \frac{i}{1+i}

or

0.1071 = \frac{i}{1+i}

or

0.1071 + 0.1071i = i

or

i = 0.1199

now,

(1 + i)ⁿ = 2.476

or

(1 + 0.1199)ⁿ = 2.476

1.1199ⁿ = 2.476

taking log both sides

n × log(1.1199) = log(2.476)

or

n = 8.006 ≈ 8

hence,

the answer is 8
