If 2 gallons of oil are used a day, than he will need 60 gallons of oil, because 30x2=60. For 60 gallons of oil, you would have to have 12 drums because 60÷5=12. Because there is already 8 drums of oil, there would already be 40 gallons because 8x5=40. If the owner already had 40 gallons of oil, they would only have to get 20 more gallons because 60-40=20. That would be 4 drums because 20÷5=4. The owner would have to order 4 more drums of oil.

Use this formula to find all the solutions of the equation. (Round terms to four decimal places)
Misha Larkins [42]
I might be misreading something here but if:

x^5+243=0  subtract 243 from both sides

x^5=-243  raise both sides to the 1/5 power  (or take the fifth root of both sides)

x=-3

So there is only one solution, x=-3
