Answer:

Two real world situations are shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of a certain bacteria is 1 thousand and the population doubles in each hour. So, population of bacteria (in thousands) after x hours is

$f(x)=1(2)^x$

$f(x)=(2)^x$

A person invests 1 lakh rupees in shares and the amount is twice at the end of each year. So, total amount (in lakhs) after x years is

$f(x)=1(2)^x$

$f(x)=(2)^x$

Which equation involves a prime quadratic and cannot be solved by factoring? A. x2 + 5x − 4 = 0 B. x2 − x − 6 = 0 C. x2 + 3x − 4

Damm [24]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can try to factorize all the options one by one.

For A:

$x^{2} +5x-4\\=> x^{2}+4x+x-4\\=>x(x+4)+1(x-4)$

We can see that the quadratic expression cannot be solved by factorization as the factors at the end of factorization are not equal in both brackets. So Option A is the correct answer for the given question.

Moreover we can also note that all the other quadratic expressions can be factorized ..

Find the annual interest rate.

slega [8]

The annual interest rate is 3.5%.

Solution:

Given Interest (I) = $26.25

Principal (P) = $500

Time (t) = 18 months

Rate of interest (r) = ?

Time must be in years to find the rate per annum.
