Answer:

Store 1= $150

Store 2= $250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested by store 1 be x while store 2 be y hence

10x-8y=1300 Eqn 1

Make x the subject of the formula for the first equation

10x=1300+8y divide both sides by 10

X=130+0.8y

6x+5y=2250 Eqn 2

Substituting where there’s x with 130+0.8y in equation 2 we obtain

6(130+0.8y)+5y=2250

780+4.8y+5y=2250

9.8y+780=2250

9.28y=2250-780=1470

Y=1470/9.8=150

X=130+0.8y= 130+0.8(150)=250

URGENT !!! 25 POINTS AND BRAINIEST FOR CORRECT ANSWER!!!
Ne4ueva [31]

Given a polynomial p(x) with leading coefficient a and solutions x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n, we have

p(x)=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)\ldots(x-x_n)

That's why we have to find the solutions first. We complete the square by adding 3 to both sides:

x^2-2x-2=0 \iff (x^2-2x-2)+3=3 \iff x^2-2x+1=3 \iff (x-1)^2=3

From here, we continue by taking the square root of both sides:

x-1=\pm 3 \iff x=1\pm\sqrt{3}

So, the two solutions are

x_1=1+\sqrt{3},\quad x_2=1-\sqrt{3}

Which yields the factorization

x^2-2x-2=(x-1-\sqrt{3})(x-1+\sqrt{3})
