For section 3.01 black, number 1 is correct, but number 2 is wrong.
When you raise an exponent to an exponent, you multiply the 2 exponents.
(x^4)^5 is x^20.
Number 3 is also right.
For 3.02, you use the interest formula. (1 + i/100)^t times x
x is the amount of money you have originally. i is the interest rate, t is the time.
1,500(1.03)^5 = 1738.91111145
$1738.91
For section 3.01 red in fractional exponents the numerator are the powers and the denominator is the root.
Answer:
t ≈ -2.014 or 3.647
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the opposite of the expression on the right side of the equal sign to put the equation into standard form.
4.9t² -8t -36 = 0
You can divide by 4.9 to make this a little easier to solve.
t² -(8/4.9)t -36/4.9 = 0
Now, add and subtract the square of half the x-coefficient to "complete the square."
t² -(8/4.9)t +(4/4.9)² -36/4.9 -(4/4.9)² = 0
(t -4/4.9)² -192.4/4.9² = 0 . . . . simplify
Add the constant term, then take the square root.
(t -4/4.9)² = 192.4/4.9²
t -4/4.9 = ±(√192.4)/4.9
t = (4 ± √192.4)/4.9
t ≈ {-2.014, 3.647}
