Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 12x - 40 = 0
x² + 12x = 40
Now, 12/2 = 6. So add 6² = 36 to each side
x² + 12x + 36 = 40 +36
A1 is the 1st term
r is the difference, they can say "r" or "d" for the difference
1st a1 is the first term = -3
2nd "r" is the difference between each consecutive terms (coming after each other) = 1.5
the rule to get any term of the sequence as we add 1.5 each time is --> a1+(n-1)*d
a1 --> 1st term , n --> order of the term u want whether 2nd, 3rd , 25th
d --> difference
so to get the 2nd--> -3+(2-1)*1.5= -1.5
to get the 3rd --> -3 +(3-1)*1.5 = 0

The formula to find markup amount

A new car has a sticker price of $22,150, while the invoice price paid on it was $18,780.
Original price of new car = $18,780
Sticker price of new car = 22,150
Change in price = 22,150 - 18,780 = 3370
Markup = 
= 
= 0.179446
Markup percentage = 0.179446 * 100 = 17.94%
Answer: f-1(x) = 9x + 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject, that is
y = x - 2 ( add 2 to both sides )
y + 2 = x
Multiply through by 9 to clear the fraction
9y + 18 = x
Change y back into terms of x
(x) = 9x + 18
