Answer:
x = -3 or x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve: x^2 -2x = 15
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
Use the Diamond method of factoring
-15 = 3* -5 and 3 - 5 = -2 so...
x^2 - 2x - 15 = x^2 - 5x + 3x - 15
x^2 - 2x - 15 = x *(x - 5) + 3*(x - 5)
x^2 - 2x - 15 = (x + 3)*(x - 5)
x^2 - 2x - 15 = (x + 3)*(x - 5) = 0
solve (x + 3 ) = 0 and (x - 5) = 0
x = -3 or x = 5
Question
Charlie is a car salesman. He earns $800 plus a 9% commision on all of his sales for the week. If charlie received a paycheck for $1916 this week, how much were his total sales?
Answer:
<h2>
1240</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
1916 - 800 = 1116 (commissions)
1116 : 9 * 100 =
1240
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions of the rectangle are two unknowns: The length "l" and the width "w"
The perimeter of a rectangle is found as P = 2*l + 2*w
We also know that the length is 5cm more than twice the width. l = 2*w + 5
These two equations gives us a system of linear equations.
P = 2*l + 2*w
l = 2*w + 5
We can use substitution to replace the "l" in the first equation with 2*w + 5
P = 2*(2*w + 5) + 2*w
P = 4*w + 10 + 2*w
P = 6*w + 10
we know the perimeter is 70
70 = 6* w + 10
subtract 10 from both sides
60 = 6* w
w = 10
Now that we know the width, we can find the length by substituting 10 for "w" in the second equation.
l = 2* 10 + 5
l = 20 +5
l = 25
the dimentions of the rectangle are 25cm x 10 cm
Answer:
x= 60.4
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 60.4
z= 29.6
x= 60.4
By complementary angle rule
i think it's 20 but i'm not that sure
