Just think of it as if you sliced a loaf of bread in half.
Answer:
what do you need help with? and thank you for the points! Once you tell me what you need help with I will write the answer in the comments!
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Jenn's account has a greater simple interest rate.
Lindsey's interest in 1 year was $3
Jenn's interest in 2 years was $7.50 if you divide $7.50 by 2 the answer would be 3.75 therefore Jenn's account has the greater simple interest rate.
you have a quadratic equation that can be factored, like x2+5x+6=0.This can be factored into(x+2)(x+3)=0.
So the solutions are x=-2 and x=-3.
2.
<span><span>1. Try first to solve the equation by factoring. Be sure that your equation is in standard form (ax2+bx+c=0) before you start your factoring attempt. Don't waste a lot of time trying to factor your equation; if you can't get it factored in less than 60 seconds, move on to another method.
</span><span>2. Next, look at the side of the equation containing the variable. Is that side a perfect square? If it is, then you can solve the equation by taking the square root of both sides of the equation. Don't forget to include a ± sign in your equation once you have taken the square root.

4.<span>Finally, the quadratic formula will work on any quadratic equation. However, if using the formula results in awkwardly large numbers under the radical sign, another method of solving may be a better choice.</span></span>
We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream
Equation1 ---- x + y = 50 (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ---- 3x + 5y = 180 Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides. (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter). Now we have x= ₋ y +50 (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50
3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1 is x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50 Now subtract 15 from both sides x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5 = + <u>75
</u> $180
