X^2+10x+16=0
First, you find factors of 16.
1 x 16
2 x 8
4 x 4
Next, you find which of the factor pairs adds up to 10 (from the 10x). In this case, 2 x 8 because 2 times 8 is 16 and 2 plus 8 is 10.
Then, the equation will be written out as: (x+2) (x+8). Take those two equations and set them equal to 0, and then solve.
x+2=0
-2 -2
x=-2
x+8=0
-8 -8
x=-8
So, your answers are x=-2 and x=-8. You can check by plugging in those two numbers as x.
Biased sample of what? I need more context :)
Simple interest doesn't compound, so we just find the interest she needs by dividing 4,000 by 8, and then divide that number by her principal to find the rate of interest.
4,000 ÷ 8 = 500
She needs 500 dollars per year in interest.
800 ÷ 14,100 = .0355 = 3.55%
Answer is B
Answer:
A) 2.58 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve you would have to subtract the pounds of tomatoes from the pounds of lettuce. The equation would look like this,
4.36 - 1.78 = 2.58
Hope that helps and have a great day!
