Rewrite equation so that it is homogeneous .
Solve characteristic equation:
The solutions to the homogeneous equation are:
Finally you need the constant term in "cy" to equal 'd' to satisfy the particular solution.
Answer:
x = 8
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
Answer:
Fundamental theorem of algebra, rational root theorem, Descartes rule of signs, remainder theorem, and the factor theorem can be utilized in solving polynomials and their depressed equations.
Polynomial functions can be written when given the zeros by determining the factors of the function, and multiplying the factors.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Flip the equation.
Add -9 to both sides
Divide both sides by 7/8
hope this helps
