Answer:

1..25a

Step-by-step explanation:

a + 25%·a = a(1 + 0.25) = 1.25a

_____

<em>Comment on percentages</em>

The symbol "%" is a shorthand way to write "/100", so 25% = 25/100 = 0.25.

Of course, 100/100 = 100% = 1.

Adding 25% of something to 100% of it gives 125% of it, the original amount multiplied by 125/100 = 1.25.

What is the area of the regular pentagon below

nordsb [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, all sides of a regular polygon are equal in length. If you know the length of one of the sides, the area is given by the formula:

$A=\dfrac{s^2\cdot n}{4\tan \frac{180^{\circ}}{n}},$

where s is the side length, n is the number of sides.

In your case, s=20 ft, n=5,so

$A=\dfrac{20^2\cdot 5}{4\tan \frac{180^{\circ}}{5}}=\dfrac{400\cdot 5}{4\tan 36^{\circ}}=\dfrac{500}{0.73}\approx 688.2\ ft^2$

Find all the zeros of 2x4+x3-14x2-19x-6 two of its zeros are -2 and -1

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

$-2,\ -1,\ -\dfrac{1}{2},\ 3.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider polynomial $2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6.$

If x=-2 is its zero, then you can divide the polynomial $2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6$ by $x+2$ and get

$2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6=(x+2)(2x^3-3x^2-8x-3).$

If x=-1, then the polynomial $2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6$ can be rewritten as

$2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6=(x+2)(x+1)(2x^2-5x-3).$

The quadratic polynomial has roots

$x_{1,2}=\dfrac{-(-5)\pm\sqrt{(-5)^2-4\cdot2\cdot(-3)}}{2\cdot 2}=\dfrac{5\pm \sqrt{25+24}}{4}=\dfrac{5\pm \sqrt{49}}{4}=3,-\dfrac{1}{2}.$

Then the polynomial $2x^4+x^3-14x^2-19x-6$ has zeros $-2,\ -1,\ -\dfrac{1}{2},\ 3.$

What is the rule for the number pattern below ?950,800,650,500,350

tekilochka [14]

Subtracts 150 each time—

950-150=800 and 800-150=650 and so on and so forth. The number sequence only includes 5 numbers so there is no way to tell if there is a tougher solution.
