The answer is D. This is because when you take 10.65 and subtract 9.95 from it you get 0.07. If you take this number and continuously add to 9.95 you get the numbers provided in the chart. We'll also notice that the 0.07 is only added after 10 minutes of talking (10,20,30,etc.).
Minimum wage in 2003 was $51.5
1996 = w
Wage in 1996= $5.15 - w
2 ways
zero product property
easy way
zero product
factor perfect square
m^2-3^2=0
(m-3)(m+3)=0
set each to zero
m-3=0
x=3
m+3=0
m=-3
m=-3 or 3
easy way
add 9 to both sides
m^2=9
sqrt both sides remember to take postive and negative roots
m=+/-3
m=-3 or 3
B is answer
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>:-
given the lengths of two sides of a right angle are represented by 2x and 3(x+1) and longest side is 17 units.
AB = 2x and BC = 3(x+1) and longest side AC= 17
by using Pythagoras theorem

<u>step 2:-</u>
The hypotenuse is longest side is AC = 17 units
(17)^2 = 4x^2 +9(X+1)^2
on simplification, we will use formula

289 = 4x^2 +9(x^2+2x+1)

finding factors 70 X 52 = 3640


Taking common , we get
13x(x-4)+70(x-4)=0
x-4=0 and 13x+70=0
x=4 and 
x=4 and 
we can not choose negative value so x value is 4
Final answer:- x = 4
<u>verification:-</u>
<u></u>
<u></u>
289 = 4(4)^2+9(4+1)^2
289 = 64 +9(25)
289=289
