For this case we have to:

Given the quadratic equation of the form:

ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0

The roots are given by:

x = \frac {-b \pm \sqrt {b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2a}

If we have: x ^ 2 + 14x + 17 = -96

We can rewrite it in the following way:

x ^ 2 + 14x + 17 + 96 = 0\\x ^ 2 + 14x + 113 = 0

Where:

a = 1\\b = 14\\c = 113

Where we have:

x = \frac {-14 \pm \sqrt {(14) ^ 2-4 (1) (113)}} {2 (1)}

x = \frac {-14 \pm \sqrt {(196-452)}} {2}

x = \frac {-14 \pm \sqrt {-256}} {2}

By definition: \sqrt {-1} = i

x = \frac {-14 \pm \sqrt {256} i} {2}

x = \frac {-14 \pm16i} {2}

x = \frac {-14} {2} \pm \frac {16i} {2}

x = -7 \pm8i

Thus, the roots are given by imaginary numbers:

x_ {1} = - 7 + 8i\\x_ {2} = - 7-8i

Answer:

x_ {1} = - 7 + 8i\\x_ {2} = - 7-8i

What is the first step in finding the unit price on a box of 20 pencils?
olga55 [171]

You would need to know the cost of the box of 20, then you would divide the total cost by the number of pencils in the box. This would give you the cost of one pencil - which is the unit cost.


Example:

Lets say the box of 20 pencils cost $10.


Divide the total cost by the number of pencils:

10 / 20 = 0.50 - This means each pencil cost 50 cents, so the unit cost would be 50 cents per pencil.

Banabas must pay his ex-wife an amount of R350 000 in two years’ time. Calculate the amount that he must invest today to have th
White raven [17]

Answer:

He must invest R297 521 today.

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is given by:

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

Banabas must pay his ex-wife an amount of R350 000 in two years’ time.

This means that t = 2, A(t) = 350000

Interest rate of 8.15% per annum compounded monthly:

This means that r = 0.0815, n = 12.

Amount he must invest today:

This is P. So

A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

350000= P(1 + \frac{0.0815}{12})^{2*12}

P = \frac{350000}{(1 + \frac{0.0815}{12})^{2*12}}

P = 297521

He must invest R297 521 today.
