Use completing the square to solve the equation x^2 0 10x = 08.

1 answer:

4 0

Ok so assuming the 0 means minus from typing problems

x^2-10x=-8

to completet the square
make sure the term in front of x^2 is 1
that is correct
then take 1/2 of the term in front of the x term and square it
-10/2=-5, (-5)^2=25
add that to both sides
x^2-10x+25=17

answer is the first equation

Larry earns $11.25/hour selling televisions. He also earns 4.5% commission on his sales. What is his

monitta

Answer:

C) $573.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can come up with the equation of this Gross Weekly pay as:

$P(t)=11.25t+0.045S$

Where P is the amount Larry will get paid, t is the time worked and S is the amount of sales he generated that week. This was derived from the fact that 11.25 is the slope and 0.045S is the y-intercept. By plugging in those values we have:

$P(35)=11.25(35)+0.045(4000)=573.75$

C) $573.75

Can someone please help me factor this

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\bf\:1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{ x ^ { 2 } -4x+3 }{ x ^ { 2 } -7x+12 } \times \frac{ x ^ { 2 } +2x-24 }{ x ^ { 2 } +5x-6 } ^ { }$

Take $\frac{ x ^ { 2 } -4x+3 }{ x ^ { 2 } -7x+12 }$ & factorise it at first.

$\frac{ x ^ { 2 } -4x+3 }{ x ^ { 2 } -7x+12 } \\= \frac{\left(x-3\right)\left(x-1\right)}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x-3\right)}\\= \frac{x-1}{x-4}$

Now factorise the next set : $\frac{ x ^ { 2 } +2x-24 }{ x ^ { 2 } +5x-6 } ^ { }$ .

$\frac{ x ^ { 2 } +2x-24 }{ x ^ { 2 } +5x-6 } ^ { }\\= \frac{\left(x-4\right)\left(x+6\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+6\right)}\\= \frac{x-4}{x-1}$

Now, multiply the two simplified results.

$\frac{ x ^ { 2 } -4x+3 }{ x ^ { 2 } -7x+12 } \times \frac{ x ^ { 2 } +2x-24 }{ x ^ { 2 } +5x-6 } ^ { }\\= \frac{x-1}{x-4}\times \frac{x-4}{x-1} \\= \frac{\left(x-1\right)\left(x-4\right)}{\left(x-4\right)\left(x-1\right)} \\= \boxed{\bf\: 1}$

A. The independent variable is time, as time is manipulating the value of her salary.

c. y = 8x
y = how much she charges for this job
8 = the amount she charges per hour
