Factor because if we have
yz=0 then we can assume y and/or z=0
so factor
so the easiest way is to find what 2 numbers add to -6 and multiply to get 9 so
we know that they must be both - because we must have x+x=(-) and x^2=+ so therefor they must be negative
factors of 9=3 and 3 so
-3 and -3
-3+-3=-6 perfect
(z-3)(z-3)=0
set each to zero
z-3=0
add 3
z=3
z=3 is the answer
<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
- Mrs. Smith left a 15% tip for a dinner that cost $62.40.
<u>To </u><u>find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
- About how much tip did Mrs. Smith leave?
<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
The tip is 15% of $62.40 .
<u>•</u><u> </u><u>Calculating</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>5</u><u>%</u><u> </u><u>of </u><u>$</u><u>6</u><u>2</u><u>.</u><u>4</u><u>0</u><u> </u>
- $ 62.40 * 15%
- $ 62.40 * 15/100
- $ 9.36
Order the number:
15,34,71,75,75,78,78,78,82,90,90,94,100
Mode:78
Mean≈74.8
Median:78 is your final answer. Hope it help!
