Just use an online calculator! i promise you they work better than this.
Answer:
x equals plus or minus square root of 5 minus 1
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

Divide by 2 the coefficient of the x-term

squared the number

Adds both sides


Rewrite as perfect squares

take the square root both sides


therefore
x equals plus or minus square root of 5 minus 1
Answer:
173.80 interest, 4518.80 total
Step-by-step explanation:
4345 X .03(3%)=130.35/year
130.35/12=10.8625/month
10.8625 x 16 months = 173.80 interest over 16 months
4345+173.80=4518.80 total amount
Literally plugging in the time for each value, we can plug in 5 for t to get
22000+(-480*5)=22000+(-2400)=22000-2400=19800
Plugging in 10, we get 22000+(-480*10)=22000-4800=17200. We can turn 22000+(-480*10) into 22000-(480*10) using the distributive property, and adding a negative number to something essentially means to subtract that number.
I challenge you to do t=15 and 20 on your own!
