Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you call "5x-2x^2+1" an "equation," then you must equate 5x-2x^2+1 to 0:
5x-2x^2+1 = 0
This is a quadratic equation. Rearranging the terms in descending order by powers of x, we get:
-2x^2 + 5x + 1 = 0. Here the coefficients are a = -2, b = 5 and c = 1.
Use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
First find the discriminant, b^2 - 4ac: 25 - 4(-2)(1) = 25 + 8 = 33
Because the discriminant is positive, the roots of this quadratic are real and unequal.
-b ± √(discriminant)
Applying the quadratic formula x = --------------------------------
2a
we get:
-5 ± √33 -5 + √33
x = ----------------- = --------------------- and
2(-2) -4
-5 - √33
---------------
-4
Answer: 154: 200 145: 100
Step-by-step explanation:
If the number next to the place value is 5 or more you round it up. Like I did 154. But if the number is less that 5 you put everything to zero EXCEPT for the place value you are rounding. Good Luck
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 5y= 5
-4x. -4x
-5y = -4x + 5
divide all by -5
y= 4/5x -1
slope is 4/5
y intercept is -1
Answer: $50.91
Step-by-step explanation:
The following information can be gotten from the question;
Cost of sweater = $49.95,
Cost of slacks = $68.59 each,
Cost of 2 slacks = $68.59 × 2
= $137.18
Cost of suit = $429.99.
Total cost = $49.95 + $137.18 + $429.99 = $617.12
Sales tax = 8.25%
The sales tax that Mike owe will be:
= 8.25% × $617.12
= 0.0825 × $617.12
= $50.91
Mike will have to pay a sales tax of $50.91
