(x+1)(x-4)-(x-2) = 0
x²-4x+x-4-x+2 = 0
x²-4x-2 = 0
/\ = (-4)² - 4*1*(-2)
/\ = 16 + 8
/\ = 24
x = (-(-4)+/- \/24) / 2
x = (4+/-\/4*6)/2
x = (4+/-2\/6)/2
x = 2+/-\/6
x' = 2+\/6
x" = 2-\/6
"3 less than a number t is at most 7"
"3 less than a number t" -->

"is at most" -->

"7" -->

put this together and we get:
Total = 500 * (1 + .06/12) ^ 12 * 4
Total = 500 * (1.005) ^ 48
Total = 500 *

Give them all the same decimal places and then compare:
0,800
1,140
Now you can compare them on equal footing. If we cut out the decimal,
Is 1140 or 800 greater?
