Answer:
9 magazines
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you will want to work backwards. Start with the junk mail. There is 18 junk mail and if there are 1/3 as many bills as junk mail then you will need to multiply 18 * 1/3. This equals 6 bills. If there is twice as many bills as letters then you will need to divide bills(6) by 2 which equals 3. If there are 6 more magazines than letters then you need to add 6 to the letters (3). 3 + 6 = 9
The trial and error method is used to find an initial factor:
If we let f(x) = x³ - x² - 24x - 36 and all we have to do is sub' in values of x until
f(x) = 0, we can use this to find an initial factor by the factor theorem:
f(1) = (1)³ - (1)² - 24(1) - 36 = -60
f(2) = (2)³ - (2)² - 24(2) - 36 = -80
f(5) = (5)³ - (5)² - 24(5) - 36 = -56
*** f(6) = (6)³ - (6)² - 24(6) - 36 = 0 ***
f(6) = 0 so (x - 6) is a factor of f(x).
This means that: f(x) = x³ - x² - 24x - 36 = (x - 6)(ax² + bx + c).
To find a,b and c, use long division (or inspection) to divide x³ - x² - 24x - 36 by x - 6.
The other 2 factors of f(x) can then be found by factorizing the
ax² + bx + c quadratic the way you would with any other quadratic (i.e. by quadratic formula, CTS or inspection).
Answer:
Yes because sum of 2 line segment is greater than the third side
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
For the answer to the question above, it is -18% because to find rate we subtract the rate, in this case, is .82 or 82% - 1 or 100% and that would give you the rate, in this case, its decreasing by an 18%
