$699 is the total.

You have 2 items that you bought.

Divide $699 (the total cost) by 2 (the two items). Do this to figure out how much each of them will cost (approximately) separately.

Now you have each item costing $349.50.

But, they tell you your washer costs $51 LESS than your dryer did.

So you subtract $349.50 - $51 to get $298.50 for the washer.

Since you subtracted $51 dollars from the washer, add $51 to the dryer to even it out:

Dryer = $349.50 + $51

Dryer = $400.50

You know to add this $51 to the dryer’s cost after you subtract $51 of the washers cost because once you take away that $51 from the washer, you total cost for both items would have been $648. But, they tell you your total cost was $699, so you know you have to put that $51 lost somewhere else.

The dryer costs MORE than the washer, because they tell you the washer costs LESS then the dryer. So you add $51 dollars to the dryer after subtracting $51 of the washer’s cost to get:

dryer= $400.50.

699/2=349.50
349.50+51=400.50

THE DRYER COSTS $400.50


I hope this helps

Solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula. 5 - 10x - 3x2 = 0
horsena [70]

Answer:

x = (-5 ± 2√10) / 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5 − 10x − 3x² = 0

Write in standard form:

-3x² − 10x + 5 = 0

Solve with quadratic formula:

x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a

x = [ -(-10) ± √((-10)² − 4(-3)(5)) ] / 2(-3)

x = [ 10 ± √(100 + 60) ] / -6

x = (10 ± 4√10) / -6

x = (-5 ± 2√10) / 3

Find an exponential function of the form y = ab* that passes through the points (0,4)
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

given an exponential function in the form y = ab^{x}

to find a and b use the coordinate points it passes through

using (0, 4 ) , then

4 = ab^{0} [ b^{0} = 1 ] , that is

a = 4 , so

y = 4b^{x}

using (2, 100 )

100 = 4b² ( divide both sides by 4 )

25 = b² ( take the square root of both sides )

\sqrt{25} = b , that is

b = 5

then exponential function is

y = 4 . 5^{x}

Substitute u=\ln x, so that \mathrm du=\dfrac{\mathrm dx}x. The integral is then equivalent to

\displaystyle\int\frac{\mathrm dx}{x\ln^px}=\int\frac{\mathrm du}{u^p}=\begin{cases}\dfrac{u^{p+1}}{p+1}+C&\text{for }p\neq1\\\\\ln|u|+C&\text{for }p=1\end{cases}

Then transforming back to x gives

\displaystyle\int\frac{\mathrm dx}{x\ln^px}=\begin{cases}\dfrac{\ln^{p+1}x}{p+1}+C&\text{for }p\neq1\\\\\ln|\ln x|+C&\text{for }p=1\end{cases}
