Items can he purchase to spend the most of the $50, after applying the coupon is that he can buy the jeans, khaki pants and the t-shirts. The total cost before coupons is $60. After the coupon is applied, the total cost is $48. Below is the solution:
20 + 20 + 15 = $60
20% OF 60 = 12
60 - 12 = $48
Joe is correct because Moe could choose two pieces but had a nine piece variety where as Joe could only choose from 7 pieces of candy
Answer:
there are two complex roots
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that for a quadratic equation
y = ax² + bx + c
the solution given by the quadratic formula is
x = ( -b ± √discriminant) / 2a
if the discriminant is negative, the radical term will become √ (negative number), which we know gives complex solutions. Hence we can eliminate real roots as possible answers.
Also notice that the "±" sign in the quadratic formula means that you will get 2 possible solutions:
x = ( -b + √discriminant) / 2a
or
x = ( -b - √discriminant) / 2a
Hence we know we will get 2 solutions.
Combining our findings, we can conclude that if the discriminant is negative, we will get 2 complex roots.
F(x) = x^4 + 81x^2
f(x) = x^2*x^2 + x^2*81
f(x) = x^2*(x^2 + 81) ... see note 1
f(x) = x^2*(x + 9i)(x - 9i) ... see note 2
note 1: if you haven't learned about complex or imaginary numbers yet, then you would stop at the line with "note 1" on it
note 2: you would stop here if you have learned about complex or imaginary numbers and you want to factor over the complex numbers. I used the rule that
a^2 + b^2 = (a+bi)*(a-bi)
Answer:
The first plane is moving at 295 mph and the second plane is moving at 355mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the speed of each plane we first need to know the relative speed between them, since they are flying in oposite directions their relative speed is the sum of their individual speeds. In this case the speed of the first plane will be "x" and the second plane will be "y". So we have:
x = y - 60
relative speed = x + y = (y - 60) + y = 2*y - 60
We can now apply the formula for average speed in order to solve for "y", we have:
average speed = distance/time
average speed = 1625/2.5 = 650 mph
In this case the average speed is equal to their relative speed, so we have:
2*y - 60 = 650
2*y = 650 + 60
2*y = 710
y = 710/2 = 355 mph
We can now solve for "x", we have:
x = 355 - 60 = 295 mph
The first plane is moving at 295 mph and the second plane is moving at 355mph.
