Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1908, a Model T cost $950. This means that the initial price was $950. The car's price dropped to $280 in the year 1927 due to it's increased efficiency.

The decrease in price is determined by subtracting the current price in 1927 from the initial price in 1908. It becomes

950 - 280 = $670

To determine the percentage decrease in price from 1908 to 1927, we will divide the decrease in price from 1908 to 1927 by the initial price in 1908 and multiply by 100. It becomes

670/950 × 100

= 70.53%

Ƒ(x) = x2 + 3x - 10. Determine the zeros of the equation.
7nadin3 [17]
I am assuming the equation is as follows
f(x) = x^2 + 3x - 10

Since the constant 10 is -10 this tells us we are going to have different signs + - after you have factored the equation.

First thing first. Think of two numbers that will give you the product(The answer after two numbers are multiplied) of -10 and the sum(Two numbers added together) of +3. I get the 3 from the 3x.

We know 5 x -2 = -10 and the sum 5 + -2 =  +3
With that said, we found our two factors
(x + 5)(x - 2)

Now write them as zeros and solve for x
x + 5 = 0
x = -5

x - 2 = 0
x = 2

So the zeros are -5 and 2.

What is 4 3/4 + 7/8 showing all work
Mekhanik [1.2K]
4 \frac{3}{4} + \frac{7}{8}

Convert  mixed numbers  to improper fractions

=  \frac{19}{4} + \frac{7}{8}

Find de LCD  for 4 and 8 :

Factor each denominator  into its primes:

4 = 2^2


8 = 2^3

Find the  least common denominator 2^3 = 8

Adjust  fractions  based on  the LCD :

\frac{19*2}{8} +  \frac{7}{8}

Since the  denominators are equal , combine the fractions:

\frac{2*19+7}{8}

\frac{38+7}{8}

=  \frac{45}{8}

Therefore:

Convert  improper fractions to mixed numbers

= 5 \frac{5}{8}

hope this helps!
