A because x is the original price, so you multiply by the tax (9%) which would convert to 1.09 which you would multiply to the x
Use the given recursion and starting value of to find :
Do the same for and :
(That's not a mistake. This just tells you that the 2nd and 3rd iterates are very close together and have at least the same first 5 digits after the decimal.)
F(x) = x² + x - 20 = x² + 5x - 4x - 20 = x(x + 5) - 4(x + 5) = (x + 5)(x - 4)
f(x) = 0 ⇔ (x + 5)(x - 4) = 0 ⇔ x + 5 = 0 or x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = -5 or x = 4
Answer: C. x = -5 and x = 4.
Answer:
(1) Commutative property
(2) Distributive property/Definition of addition
(3) Compatibility with addition/Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property
(4) Compatibility with multiplication/Associative property/Definition of division/Existence of additive inverse/Commutative and modulative properties/Result
Step-by-step explanation:
We proceed to solve algebraically and explain each step:
1) GIven
2) Commutative property
3) Distributive property/Definition of addition
4) Definition of addition
5) Compatibility with addition
6) Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property
7) Compatibility with multiplication
8) Associative property/Definition of division/Existence of additive inverse/Commutative and modulative properties/Result
Hence, we have the following answers:
(1) Commutative property
(2) Distributive property/Definition of addition
(3) Compatibility with addition/Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property
(4) Compatibility with multiplication/Associative property/Definition of division/Existence of additive inverse/Commutative and modulative properties/Result
