x^2 + 10x + 4 = 0
you can use the quadratic formula to solve:
a = 1, b = 10, c = 4
x= −b ± √b^2 −4ac / 2a
x = -10 ± √(10)2 − 4(1)(4) / 2(1)
x = -10 ± √84 / 2
x = -0.42 or -9.58
Yes, she can. Dividing by 20 gives 1 less every time, so you can just add to the result you get when you divide 855 from 20.
The 3rd significant figure is 8 so we add 1 to the 2nd sig fig
answer is 2700
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
I hope this is not a trick question.
Julie would reach her goal first. Julie would reach her goal in approximately 316 days while it would take Mary approximately 333 days to reach it.
I know this because the steps to solve the problem are:
1.) 1,000/12 = 83.333 (to find how many days it would take her everyday)
2.) 83.333x4 = 333 (multiplying the answer by four makes it every four days)
3.) determine that it takes Mary 333 days
4.) 1,000/19 = 52.631 (just like step 1 but with different numbers)
5.) 52.631x6 = 316 (just like in step 2 but different numbers)
6.) determine it takes Julie 316 days
7.) 316 < 333 (takes Julie less time)
