Answer:
g(x) = 5 – x
Step-by-step explanation:
The should be 158 ways, because 9*8+8*7+6*5=158.
Answer:
Hi! I believe this is your answer:
$750
Step by step explanation:
interest + interest = total interest
0.08*x + 0.09*(9000-x) = 750 dollars
0.08x + 810 - 0.09x = 750
-0.01x = 750 - 810 = -60 ====> x = %28-60%29%2F%28-0.01%29 = 6000.
Final answer:
$6000 was invested at 8%. The rest 9000-6000 = 3000 dollars were invested at 9%.
Check. 0.08*6000 + 0.09*3000 = 480 + 270 = 750 dollars.
Answer: False
=============================================
Explanation:
I'll use x in place of p.
The original equation 10x^2-5x = -8 becomes 10x^2-5x+8 = 0 after moving everything to one side.
Compare this to ax^2+bx+c = 0
We have
Plug those three values into the discriminant formula below
d = b^2 - 4ac
d = (-5)^2 - 4(10)(8)
d = 25 - 40*8
d = 25 - 320
d = -295
The discriminant is negative, which means we have no real solutions. If your teacher has covered complex or imaginary numbers, then you would say that the quadratic has 2 complex roots. If your teacher hasn't covered this topic yet, then you'd simply say "no real solutions".
Either way, this quadratic doesn't have exactly one solution. That only occurs when d = 0. Therefore, the original statement is false.
