The person that factored the polynomial did one thing wrong -- they used minus signs when they should've used plus signs. We can figure this out because of the values of the quantities in the original trinomial. Since all of them are positive, we know that either there are two plus signs or that there is a minus and a plus sign with the value to the right of the plus sign being greater than the value to the right of the minus sign. But, that wouldn't work here, so the only thing wrong with this answer is that the plus signs should be minus signs.
We need to use the formula for simple interest which is
I= prt
Where I is the amount of money you earned or pay in interest
p is the principal, the amount you deposited or borrowed
r is the interest rate expressed as a decimal
t is time in terms of years
In this problem, I= 1,680
p= 3000
t= 8
'. r is what we are looking for.
Substituting the numbers into the simple interest formula, we get
I=. p r t
1,680=(3000)(r)(8). Multiplying
1,680= 24,000r Divide both sides by 24,000
0.07= r
So, the percentage is (0.07)(100)= 7%...
Answer:
you could make a number line with 11 lines and start at .04 and go to .05 so the 11 lines will be 0.04,0.041,0.042,0.043,0.044,0.045,0.046,0.047,0.048,0.049,0.05
and you could put a dot on 0.043
2x + 9 = -65
2x = -65 - 9
2x = -74
x = -74/2
x = -37
So, your final answer is -37
Hope this helps!
