Answer:

x=-3+\sqrt{27}\\  x=-3-\sqrt{27}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find our C value for the quadratic equation.

(\frac{6}{2})^{2} = 9

That is our C. Since we added 9 to one side, we have to do the same to the other. We get:

x^{2} +6x + 9 = 18 + 9\\x^{2} +6x + 9 = 27

Now, lets form the left side as a binomial squared.

(x+3)^{2} = 27

Let's square both sides now:

x+3 = (+/-)\sqrt{27}

Now, we subtract 3 from both sides to isolate the variable, X:

x= -3(+/-)\sqrt{27}

This means that the answers are:

x=-3+\sqrt{27}\\  x=-3-\sqrt{27}

I do not understand your answers though. Answer A makes no sense, answer B is 221, answer C is 115, and answer D also does not make sense. If you could clarify this portion, maybe I can help you find your alphabetic answer

Mr. Tragrr has $500.00 to spend at a bicycle store. All the prices listed down below include tax.
fgiga [73]

To answer the question, you need to determine the amount Mr. Traeger has left to spend, then find the maximum number of outfits that will cost less than that remaining amount.

Spent so far:

... 273.98 + 3×7.23 +42.36 = 338.03

Remaining available funds:

... 500.00 -338.03 = 161.97

The cycling outfits are about $80 (slightly less), and this amount is about $160 (slightly more), which is 2 × $80.

Mr. Traeger can buy two (2) cycling outfits with the remaining money.

_____

The remaining money is 161.97/78.12 = 2.0733 times the cost of a cycling outfit. We're sure he has no interest in purchasing a fraction of an outfit, so he can afford to buy 2 outfits.

How Do I solve this I am quite confused
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

$11,714

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = 0.7x² - 462x + 87,944

this is a quadratic equation that opens up

the vertex will be the minimum

From the quadratic formula the x coordinate of the vertex is

x = -b/2a

x = 462/(2 * 0.7)

x = 330

Plug in

c(330) = 0.7(330²) - 462(330) + 87,944

c(330) = 11,714

$11,714
