Collin

22 years = 55,000 USD

+15 years

37 years = 2 x 55,000 = 110,000 USD

+15 years

52 years = 2 x 110,000 = 220,000 USD

Cameron

22 years = 35,000 USD

+10 years

32 years = 2 x 35,000 = 70,000 USD

+10 years

42 years = 2 x 70,000 = 140,000 USD

+10 years

52 years = 2 x 140,000 = 280,000 USD

+10 years

62 years = 2 x 280,000 = 560,000 USD

Retirement Salaries

Collin = 220,000 USD

Cameron = 560,000 USD

Mark recorded the growth of a plant over 8 weeks. The equation y=0.2 x+2
Leto [7]

Answer:

A. The height of the plant after week 3 was about 2.6 inches.

C. The height of the plant after week 9 was about 3.8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given:

Y = 0.2x + 2

x represents the number of weeks

substituting x = 3 into the equation , we will have

y = 0.2(3) + 2

y = 0.6 + 2

y = 2.6

This means that  the height of the plant after week 3 was about 2.6 inches.

Also , substituting x = 9 into the equation will give

y = 0.2 (9) + 2

y = 1.8 + 2

y = 3.8

This means that the height of the plant after week 9 was about 3.8 inches.

Logan measured a line to be 7.4 inches long. If the actual length of the line is 7.7 inches, then what was the percent error of
algol13

Answer:

3.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage error

=  \frac{7.7 - 7.4}{7.7}  \times 100 \\  \\  =  \frac{0.3}{7.7}  \times 100 \\  \\   =  \frac{300}{77}  \\  \\  = 3.8961039    \\  \\  = 3.9 \%

What are the determinants for solving this linear system?<br> 5x + 3y = 17<br> −8x − 3y = 9
Ksivusya [100]
For this case we have the following system of equations:
 5x + 3y = 17
 -8x - 3y = 9
 We can rewrite the system like:
 Ax = b
 Where,
 A = [5   3; -8   -3]
 b = [17; 9]
 x = [x; y]
 The determinant of matrix A is given by:
 lAl = ((5) * (- 3)) - ((3) * (- 8))
 lAl = (-15) - (-24)
 lAl = -15 + 24
 lAl = 9
 Answer:
 
The determinant for solving this linear system is:
 
lAl = 9

To find the zeros of a quadratic fiunction given the equation you can use the next quadratic formula after equal the function to 0:

\begin{gathered} ax^2+bx+c=0 \\  \\ x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \end{gathered}

For the given function:

f(x)=2x^2-10x-3x=\frac{-(-10)\pm\sqrt[]{(-10)^2-4(2)(-3)}}{2(2)}x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt[]{100+24}}{4}\begin{gathered} x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt[]{124}}{4} \\  \\ x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt[]{2\cdot2\cdot31}}{4} \\  \\ x=\frac{10\pm\sqrt[]{2^2\cdot31}}{4} \\  \\ x=\frac{10\pm2\sqrt[]{31}}{4} \\  \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} x_1=\frac{10}{4}+\frac{2\sqrt[]{31}}{4} \\  \\ x_1=\frac{5}{2}+\frac{\sqrt[]{31}}{2} \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} x_2=\frac{10}{4}-\frac{2\sqrt[]{31}}{4} \\  \\ x_2=\frac{5}{2}-\frac{\sqrt[]{31}}{2} \end{gathered}

Then, the zeros of the given quadratic function are:

\begin{gathered} x=\frac{5}{2}+\frac{\sqrt[]{31}}{2} \\  \\ x_{}=\frac{5}{2}-\frac{\sqrt[]{31}}{2} \end{gathered}
