x² - 4x - 12 = 0
Factor the left side: (x + 2) · (x - 6) = 0
The equation is true if either factor is zero.
If (x + 2) = 0 then x = -2 .
If (x - 6) = 0 then x = 6 .
Answer:
They would have the bike for 1.7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The bike is rented at a charge of $5 for every half an hour,this can be expressed as:
$5 per 0.5 hours, to calculate the time one will have the bike if they pay $17
The amount of paid=Standard Rate per 1/2 of an hour/Number of hours
where;
The amount paid=$17
Standard Rate per 1/2 an hour=$5/0.5
Number of hours
Replacing;
n=(17×0.5)/5=1.7 hours
Answer:
lots of multiplying I've noticed
