Solve for x over the real numbers:
-x^2 - 12 = -87
Add 12 to both sides:
-x^2 = -75
Multiply both sides by -1:
x^2 = 75
Take the square root of both sides:
Answer: x = 5 sqrt(3) or x = -5 sqrt(3) both Answers are correct
Answer:
2 orders
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
The local store sells at $24 per pair of jeans
Cost = $24
The online store sells at $22 per pair plus a shipping fee of $6 per order
let the number of orders be x
Cost= 22+6x
For 1 order
the online store will cost
Cost= 22+6*1
Cost= 22+6
Cost= $28
For 2 orders
The local shop cost
Cost= 24*2= $48
The online store will cost
Cost= 22+6*2
the online store will cost
Cost= 22+12
Cost= $34
Hence Tim should place at least 2 orders if he wants to buy online
If you rounded it it would be 4.6
