If the proportion of people afraid to fly is 0.10 that means that there is a 10% chance they are afraid to fly. Though the proportion is this way, proportions aren't always exact, but are just estimations, so the proportion hasn't necessarily changed.
The awnser is F) This account earns 4% compounding interest.
Hope it helps :)
Answer:
(- 2, - 8 ) , (6, 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 18 = x(x - 3) ← distribute
y + 18 = x² - 3x → (1)
x = y + 6 → (2)
Substitute x = y + 6 into (1)
y + 18 =(y + 6)² - 3(y + 6) ← expand parenthesis using FOIL
y + 18 = y² + 12y + 36 - 3y - 18
y + 18 = y² + 9y + 18 ( subtract y + 18 from both sides )
0 = y² + 8y = y(y + 8)
Equate each factor to zero and solve for y
y = 0
y + 8 = 0 ⇒ y = - 8
Substitute these values into (2) and evaluate for x
y = 0 : x = 0 + 6 = 6 ⇒ (6, 0 )
y = - 8 : x = - 8 + 6 = - 2 ⇒ (- 2, - 8 )
You can rewrite your function as

This implies that

Now, we have
, so it counts as a solution.
On the other hand, depending on the coefficient a, b and c, the cubic equation

can have either one or three solutions.
So, we have the solution x=0, and then one or three solutions coming from the cubic part. The equation as a whole thus have either two or four solutions, depending on the coefficients.
