Move all terms to one side
4w^2 + 49 + 28w = 0
Rewrite 4w^2 + 49 + 28w in the form a^2 + 2ab + b^2, where a = 2w and b = 7
(2w)^2 + 2(2w)(7) + 7^2 = 0
Use the Square of Sum: (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
(2w + 7)^2 = 0
Take the square root of both sides
3w + 7 = 0
Subtract 7 from both sides
2w = -7
Divide both sides by 2
<u>w = -7/2</u>
Answer:
(-1,8)
(4,-27)
Step-by-step explanation:
y+7x=1
Let x = -1 and find y
y+7(-1)=1
y -7 =1
Add 7 to each side
y-7+7 = 1+7
y = 8
(-1,8)
Let x = 4 and find y
y+7(4)=1
y +28 =1
Subtract 28 from each side
y+28-28 = 1-28
y = -27
(4,-27)
3 yrs ago:
Alice - x
Jane - 3x
Fast forward 2 years... 1 year ago:
Sum of their ages = 62
Equation to solve: x + 3x = 62
4x = 62
----- -----
4 4
x = 15.5
From this, we can deterime that Alice is 15 1/2 years old.
Then, plug in 15.5 for x in 3x to find Jane's age.
15.5 × 3 = 46.5
From this, we can determine that Jane is 46 1/2 years old.
I hope this helps you to understand this problem better.
Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
P= principal (initial deposit) ($7000)
i= interest (5%)
t= # of years (3)
Total amount = P (1 + i)^t
T= $7000(1 + 5%)^3
T= 7000(1.05)^3
multiply exponents before regular multiplication
T= 7000(1.157625)
Total= $8,103.38 after 3 years
Hope this helps! :)
