Let the initial money be x so by question,
3x/5 +1x/5+1200=x
or, 1200= x - 4x/5
or, 1200 = 1x/5
or, 6000= x
hence the initial money was 6000$

The equation x^3+x^2+ax-4=0 has one root equal to -2. Find the value of a.​
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

a = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x = - 2 is a root then f(- 2) = 0

f(x) = x³ + x² + ax - 4, thus

f(- 2) = (- 2)³ + (- 2)² - 2a - 4 = 0, that is

f(- 2) = - 8 + 4 - 2a - 4 = 0, thus

- 8 - 2a = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )

- 2a = 8 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

a = - 4
