The answer is -13.
Solution:
= |-4b - 8| + |-1 - b^2| + 2b^3
= |-4(-2) - 8| + |-1 - -2^2| + 2(-2)^3
= |8-8| + |-1+4| + 2(-8)
= |0| + |3| + (-16)
= -13
A) The correct way to write 1/4 as a precent is 25%.
because....
1÷4= .25. and .25×100= 25%
b) The reporter most likely forgot to multiply by 100. The reporter instead just found what 1/4 was as a decimal, not a precent.
Answer:
There is exactly 1 solution and it is a double root.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, factor the equation and solve.
x^2 + 10x - 25 = 0
(x - 5)(x - 5) = 0
Now that we have this factored, we can set each parenthesis equal to 0 and solve separately.
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
Because there are two of the exact same answer, we know it to be a double root.
