Yes you have a good example.
x = number of cookies
2*x = total amount spent on cookies at $2 each
2x-3 = amount you pay after the $3 discount is applied one time for the entire order
-------------
a more numeric example may be this
Lets say you bought 12 cookies, so x = 12
This means it costs 2*x = 2*12 = 24 dollars total if the discount doesnt apply
However, the 3 dollar discount is there, so the grand total is 24-3 = 21 dollars.
1a) Possible rational roots will be of the form
±{divisor of 10}/{divisor of 4}
Divisors of 10 are {1, 2, 5, 10}
Divisors of 4 are {1, 2, 4}
Then possible rational roots are
{±1/4, ±1/2, ±1, ±5/4, ±2, ±5/2, ±5, ±10}
1b) Your answer is correct.
2) One additional root will be the conjuate of the given complex root.
5 -3i
3) If one root is 5 -√7, another will be 5 +√7. Then your polynomial is
P(x) = (x -(5 -√7))*(x -(5 +√7)) = (x -5)^2 -(√7)^2
P(x) = x^2 -10x +18
Answer:
i have no idea what it is so good luck
Step-by-step explanation:
33 child tickets were sold that day.
adult tickets = a
child tickets = c
9.2a + 5.4c = 785.4
a = 2c
Substitute a into the first equation
9.2(2c) + 5.4c = 785.4
Simplify
18.4c + 5.4c = 785.4
Combine like terms by adding
23.8c = 785.4
Divide both sides by 23.8 to isolate the variable c
c = 33
The answer is C I believe. I wasn't sure what exactly D was saying, but I am pretty sure the answer is C
