Answer:
That can be re-written:
x^2 + 5x -8 = 0
We use the Quadratic Formula
a=1
b = 5
c = -8
x = [-b +- sq root (b^2 - 4ac) ] / 2a
x = [-5 +- sq root (25 - - 32)] / 2
x1 = [-5 + sq root (57)] / 2
x1 = 1.27491722
x2 = [-5 - sq root (57)] / 2
x2 = -6.2749172176
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
In the first account was invested
at 3%
In the second account was invested
at 5%
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The simple interest formula is equal to
where
I is the Interest Value
P is the Principal amount of money to be invested
r is the rate of interest
t is Number of Time Periods
in this problem we have
First account
substitute in the formula above
Second account
substitute in the formula above
Remember that
The interest is equal to
so
Adds the interest of both accounts
therefore
In the first account was invested
at 3%
In the second account was invested
at 5%
About a 37% change
74 - 54 = 20
20/54 = <span>0.37037037037</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4x > -16 reduces to x > -4: All numbers greater than x = -4 (shaded area to the right of -4).
6x < -48 reduces to x < -8: All numbers to the left of -8 (shaded area to the left of -8).
Solution: (-infinity, -4) ∪ (-8, infinity)
The number line between -8 and -4 is not part of the solution set (is not shaded or darkened)
Draw an open circle at -8 and extend an arrow to the left of this circle. Then draw an open circle at -4 and extend an arrow to the right of this circle.
