Answer:

The answer is 4 years

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use each option to calculate the problem, we get:

125(0.88)^1 = 110

125(0.88)^2 = 96.8

125(0.88)^3 = 85.2

125(0.88)^4 = 74.96

We can see that 74.96 is approximately 75, therefore 4 years is the answer.

Solve for x.<br> Give the solutions in ascending order.<br><br> x^2+3x-4=0<br> x= or x=
lutik1710 [3]
To solve this equation simply find 2 numbers that multiply to give -4 and add also to give 3, these numbers are 4 and -1. Since 4 • -1 = -4 and 4 + -1 = 3.

X^2 + 3x - 4 = 0
(X - 1)(X + 4) = 0
X = -4 and X = 1 in ascending order.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Conrad had 56 sales on Monday , 168 sales on Tuesday and 504 sales on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no. of sales on Monday

We are given that On Tuesday Conrad had 3 times as many sales as on Monday.

So, Conrad had sales on Tuesday = 3x

We are also given that On Wednesday, he had 9 times as many sales as on Monday.

So, Conrad had sales on Wednesday = 9x

Over the three days, he had a total of 728 sales

So, x+3x+9x=728

13x=728

x=\frac{728}{13}

x=56

Conrad had sales on Tuesday = 3x =3(56)=168

Conrad had sales on Wednesday = 9x=9(56)=504

Hence Conrad had 56 sales on Monday , 168 sales on Tuesday and 504 sales on Wednesday.

A baseball team played 25 games and won 10 of them. What percent of the games did they win?
GalinKa [24]

Answer: 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Setting up an equation to solve,

25 as the denominator representing the total number of baseball games played to represent the "whole."

10 as the numerator representing the number of games the baseball games won to represent the "part" you want to calculate as a percentage.

The equation, looking like this,

10/25 = ___

after calculating the equation you get 2/5 as reduced, evaluating that in terms of percentage you get 40% as 5 represents 100% (the whole) and 2 representing 40% (the number of baseball games won)
