Answer:

22%

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2000, the cost price for a gallon of milk was $2.69

In 2010, it costs $3.29.

Increase = $3.29 - $2.69

= $0.6

% increase =increase/original pricex100%

= $0.6/$2.69 x 100%

= 0.22 x 100

= 22%

Therefore , there was a 22% increase in the price of gallon of milk from 2000 to 2010

What are the exact solutions of x2 − 5x − 7 = 0, where x equals negative b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus 4 ti

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

$x = \frac{5 + \sqrt{53}}{2}$ or $x = \frac{5 - \sqrt{53}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$x^2 - 5x - 7 = 0$

Required

Solve for x using:

$x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

First, we need to identify a, b and c

The general form of a quadratic equation is:

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

So, by comparison with $x^2 - 5x - 7 = 0$

$a = 1$ $b = -5$ $c = -7$

Substitute these values of a, b and c in

$x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

$x = \frac{-(-5) \± \sqrt{(-5)^2 - 4 * 1 * -7}}{2 * 1}$

$x = \frac{5 \± \sqrt{25 +28}}{2}$

$x = \frac{5 \± \sqrt{53}}{2}$

Split the expression to two

$x = \frac{5 + \sqrt{53}}{2}$ or $x = \frac{5 - \sqrt{53}}{2}$

To solve further in decimal form, we have

$x = \frac{5 + 7.28}{2}$ or $x = \frac{5 - 7.28}{2}$

$x = \frac{12.28}{2}$ or $x = \frac{-2.28}{2}$

$x = 6.14$ or $x = -1.14$

70 pointsss for the correct answer

Answer:

f(x) = 12x³ - 19x² + 17x - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

We can the numerator by multiplying the denominator by the quotient, and then adding the remainder.

We're given a denominator of 4x - 5

a quotient of 3x² - x + 3

and a remainder of -2

so the original numerator is:

(4x - 5)(3x² - x + 3) - 2

= 12x³ - 4x² + 12x - 15x² + 5x - 15 - 2

= 12x³ - 19x² + 17x - 17

Let's test that by dividing it by 4x -5 with long division:

$\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 3x^2 - x + 3\\4x - 5\overline{)12x^3 - 19x^2 + 17x - 17}\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \underline{2x^3 - 15x^2}\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ -4x^2 + 17x\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \underline{-4x^2 + 5x} \\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 12x - 17\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \underline{12x - 15}\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 2R$

That matches, so we know our answer's right, and:

f(x) = 12x³ - 19x² + 17x - 17

the width of a rectangle is 6ft. find the perimeter of the rectangle if it's area is 42 square feet.

katrin2010 [14]

Formula: Area = length * width
Substitute in what you know: 42 = length * 6
Divide both sides by 6 to get the length: length = 7

Formula: Perimeter = 2 (length + width)
Substitute in what you know: P= 2 (7+6)
Solve: Perimeter = 26 ft
