Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6x∧2-7x-3=0

the coefficient of x² multiplied by -3 = -18

we need to look for 2 numbers that when we add it to together it will equate to -7x

+2 and -9 is the answer

6x∧2+2x-9x-3=0

2x(3x+1)-3(3x+1)=0

(2x-3)(3x+1)=0

equate each brackets to 0

2x-3=0 3x+1=0

2x=3 3x=-1

x=3/2 x=-1/3

Hakim deposited $50 in a saving account earning 10% interest, compounded annually . To the nearest cent , how much interest will

Paraphin [41]

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \quad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill &\$50\\ r=rate\to 10\%\to \frac{10}{100}\dotfill &0.10\\ n= \begin{array}{llll} \textit{times it compounds per year}\\ \textit{annually, thus once} \end{array}\dotfill &1\\ t=years\dotfill &2 \end{cases}$

$\bf A=50\left(1+\frac{0.10}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 2}\implies A=50(1.1)^2\implies A=60.5 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{earned interest}}{60.5 - 50\implies 10.5}~\hfill$
