When completing an online shopping transaction, a typical shopper takes 5 seconds to select each product and another 60 seconds
1 answer:
4 products are being purchased.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Time taken to select each product = 5 seconds
Time taken to complete check out process = 60 seconds
Total time taken for a transaction = 80 seconds
Let,
x be the number of products purchased.
Time taken for each product*Number of product + Time for check out process = total process
Dividing both sides by 5
4 products are being purchased.

<h3>Answer:</h3>
(x, y) ≈ (1.49021612010, 1.22074408461)
<h3>Explanation:</h3>This is best solved graphically or by some other machine method. The approximate solution (x=1.49, y=1.221) can be iterated by any of several approaches to refine the values to the ones given above. The values above were obtained using Newton's method iteration.
_____
Setting the y-values equal and squaring both sides of the equation gives ...
... √x = x² -1
... x = (x² -1)² = x⁴ -2x² +1 . . . . . square both sides
... x⁴ -2x² -x +1 = 0 . . . . . polynomial equation in standard form.
By Descarte's rule of signs, we know there are two positive real roots to this equation. From the graph, we know the other two roots are complex. The second positive real root is extraneous, corresponding to the negative branch of the square root function.
