With college education you will earn $1,200,000*0.3=$360,000 more.

How do you solve it?

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

<em>i: </em>x=-2, x=1

<em>ii: </em>x=-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic form:

You solve <em>i </em>by using FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) because it is a multiplication problem.

$(x+2)(x-1)=0$

<em>"first"</em> would be $x*x$ , which would equal $x^{2}$

<em>"outside"</em> would be $x*-1$ , which would equal $-1x, or -x$

<em>"inside"</em> would be $2*x$ , which would equal $2x$

<em>"last" </em>would be $2*-1$ , which would equal $-2$

Now you need to combine the terms so that they are one after the other

$x^{2}-x$ $+2x-2$

Combine like terms, and you should get:

$x^{2} +x-2$

i Solution

<em>You need to get the variable by itself.</em>

<em>Subtract two from both sides</em>

$x+2=0\\x=-2$

<em>Add one to both sides.</em>

$x-1=0\\x=1$

ii Solution

<em>Add all the terms.</em>

$x+2+x-1=0\\2x+1=0\\2x=-1\\x=-\frac{1}{2}$

Find the 10th term <br><br> 3,15,75,375

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

5859375

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the terms of a geometric sequence with n th term

$a_{n}$ = $a_{1}$ $r^{n-1}$

where r is the common ratio and $a_{1}$ the first term

here r = $\frac{375}{75}$ = $\frac{75}{15}$ = $\frac{15}{3}$ = 5 and $a_{1}$ = 3, hence

$a_{10}$ = 3 × $(5)^{9}$ = 5859375
