2.57*10^4 is 1,000,000 times more than 2.57*10^-1
Why?
4-(-1)=5 2
2.57*10^4=25700
2.57*10^-1=0.0257
and
25700
÷ 0.0257
=1000000
and 1000000=10^6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- I = 5% = 0.05
- t = 2 years
- Let the sum is x.
<u>Simple interest:</u>
<u>Compound interest:</u>
- CI = x*(1 + 0.05)² - x = 1.1025x - x = 0.1025x
<u>The difference is 230:</u>
- 0.1025x - 0.1x = 230
- 0.0025x = 230
- x = 230/0.0025
- x = 92000
Expand the right side:


Notice that 98 = 2 * 7 * 7, so we have

Answer:
No real
solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, let us check if we would be having a real solution
We start by rewriting the equation
We have this as;
8x^2 -25x + 24 = 0
We proceed to get the discriminant
Mathematically, we have this as;
D = b^2 - 4ac
b is the coefficient of x which is -25
a is the coefficient of x^2 which is 8
c is the last number which is 24
So we have;
D = (-25)^2 - 4(8)(24)
D = 625 - 768 = -143
Since the value of the discriminant is negative, there cannot be real roots
What we have as solution are complex roots
