Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
x = first number
3x = second number
2x = third number
27 = x + 3x+ 2x
27 = 6x
x=4.5 (first number)
3(4.5) = 13.5 (second number)
2(4.5) = 9 (third number)
(4.5 + 13.5 + 9) /3 = 9
Wow after doing all that I realized that all you had to do was 27/3 since there's 3 numbers.
The polynomial is (mx^3+3)(2x²+5x+2)-(8x^5 +20x^4)
if it is reduced to 8x^3+6x²+15x+6, so we can find the value of m
(mx^3+3)(2x²+5x+2)-(8x^5+20x^4) = <span>8x^3+6x²+15x+6
</span>2mx^5+5mx^4+2mx^3+6x²+15x+6-8x^5-20x^4=<span>8x^3+6x²+15x+6
</span>2mx^5+5mx^4+2mx^3=8x^3+6x²+15x+6-6x²-15x-6+ <span>8x^5+20x^4
</span>= 8x^5+20x^4+<span>8x^3= 4(2x^5+5x^4+2x^3)
finally
</span>m(2x^5+5x^4+2x^3)=<span>4(2x^5+5x^4+2x^3), and after simplification
</span>
C: m=4
<span>4. When the expression is factored x²-3x-18 completely,
</span>
one of its factor is x-6
<span>x²-3x-18=0
</span>D= 9-4(-18)= 81, sqrtD=9 x=3-9/2= -6/2= -3, and x=3+9 / 2= 6
so <span>x²-3x-18= (x-6)(x+6)
</span>
Answer:
240 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Grade 7 : Grade 8 = 5 : 3
Number of seventh grade students = 5x
Number of Eighth grade students = 3x
3x = 90
x = 90÷3
x = 30
Total students = 5x + 3x = 8x = 8 * 30 = 240
Present value of annuity PV = P(1 - (1 + r/t)^-nt) / (r/t)
where: p is the monthly payment, r is the APR = 14.12% = 0.1412, t is the number of payments in one year = 12, n is the number of years = 2.
1,120.87 = P(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^(-2 x 12)) / (0.1412 / 12)
0.1412(1120.87) = 12P(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^-24)
P = 0.1412(1120.87) / 12(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^-24) = $53.88
Minimum monthly payment = 3.15% of 1120.87(1 + 0.1412/12) = 0.0315 x 1120.87(1 + 0.1412/12) = $35.72
Therefore, his first payment will be greater than the minimum payment by 53.88 - 35.72 = $18.16
