Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Percy is not correct because he applied the zero product property to a factored expression that was not equal to 0. He should have subtracted 12 from both sides to get x2 + 7x = 0 before factoring. The correct solutions are 0 and -7.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

X Company charges (0.2+0.01n)\times 10^2 \ cents more than Company Y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of X company = \$ 0.35+(\$0.05\times 1 \ minute)

Cost of Y Company =\$ 0.15+(\$0.04\times 1 \ minute)

for n minutes

Cost of X company for n minutes = \$ 0.35+(\$0.05\times n \ minute)

Cost of Y Company for n minutes =\$ 0.15+(\$0.04\times n \ minute)

Difference for n minutes we get by Subtracting Cost of Y Company for n minutes by Cost of X company for n minutes

Difference for n minutes = (\$ 0.2+\$ 0.01n)=(0.2+0.01n)\times 10^2 \ cents

X Company charges (0.2+0.01n)\times 10^2 \ cents more than Company Y

crimeas [40]

Answer:

<h2>LCD = 9</h2>

Equivalent Fractions with the LCD

1/3 = 3/9

5/9 = 5/9

Solution:

Rewriting input as fractions if necessary:

1/3, 5/9

For the denominators (3, 9) the least common multiple (LCM) is 9.

LCM(3, 9)

Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 9.

Calculations to rewrite the original inputs as equivalent fractions with the LCD:

1/3 = 1/3 × 3/3 = 3/9

5/9 = 5/9 × 1/1 = 5/9
