Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 3x + 7 = 5 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
x² + 3x + 2 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 2)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x ( zero product rule )
x + 2 = 0 → x = - 2
x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1
--------------------------------------------------------------
x² - 2 = - 2x² + 5x ( subtract - 2x² + 5x from both sides )
3x² - 5x - 2 = 0 ← in standard form
(3x + 1)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
3x + 1 = 0 ⇒ 3x = - 1 ⇒ x = -
x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
------------------------------------------------------------
(x + 3)² + 4x = 0 ← expand left side using FOIL and simplify
x² + 6x + 9 + 4x = 0
x² + 10x + 9 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 9)(x + 1) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9
x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
So the general formula for compound interest is where t is typically time in years, and n is how many times it's compounded per year. But in this case it's only compounded 1 time per year so the equation is just
. in this case P is the principal amount, r is the interest, and A is the final amount. So the 5% interest rate becomes 0.05 by dividing by 100 to convert it into decimal form and the principle amount of 11,000. This gives you the formula
. This is the answer to the first question where t is the time in years. When it says "Find interest earned" I'm a bit confused, is it giving you x amount of years where you have to calculate the interest earned or does it want a general equation? Because the general equation would be the final amount - the principle amount which calculates the difference. So the equation for interest earned would be
. To calculate the amount of money after 5 years you simply plug in 5 as t. this gives you the equation
