Answer: 5</h3>
=================================================
Work Shown:
x^2 - 5x + 1 = 0
x^2 + 1 - 5x = 0
x^2 + 1 = 5x
(x^2 + 1)/x = 5 .... where x is nonzero
(x^2)/x + (1/x) = 5
x + (1/x) = 5
---------------
An alternative method involves solving the original equation using the quadratic formula. After you get the two roots x = p and x = q, you should be able to find that p + 1/p = 5 and also q + 1/q = 5 as well.
In this case,
p = (5 + sqrt(21))/2
q = (5 - sqrt(21))/2

We can calculate EEE, the amount of euros that has the same value as DDD U.S. Dollars, using the equation
E= 17/20 D
a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros
b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars
Answer:
a) 0.85 euros
b) 1.18 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is given as:
E= 17/20 D
a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros
E = 17/20D
D = 1 dollar
Hence:
E = 17/20 × 1
E = 0.85 euros
b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars
E = 17/20D
E = 1 euro
1 = 17/20D
D = 1 ÷ 17/20
D = 1 × 20/17
D = 1.1764705882 dollars
D = 1.18 dollars
I believe you would need to divide 123.75 by 7.50.
The equation would look something like this:
7.50x=123.75
Where x = # of hours worked
123.75 / 7.50 = 16.5
so x = 16.5
You worked for 16.5 hours
