Answer:
Often, the simplest way to solve "ax2 + bx + c = 0" for the value of x is to factor the quadratic, set each factor equal to zero, and then solve each factor. But sometimes the quadratic is too messy, or it doesn't factor at all, or you just don't feel like factoring. While factoring may not always be successful, the Quadratic Formula can always find the solution.
The Quadratic Formula uses the "a", "b", and "c" from "ax2 + bx + c", where "a", "b", and "c" are just numbers; they are the "numerical coefficients" of the quadratic equation they've given you to solve.
Answer:
y = 1/2x + 3
O f(x)= 1/2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x - 6
y = 2x - 6
x = 2y - 6
2y = x + 6
y = (x + 6)/2
y = 1/2x + 3
You have to take $8,550 times 0.12 (12%) to find out the number it is being decreased by.
8,550 x 0.12 = 1,026
And then, you have to subtract 1,026 from 8,550 three times for three years and your answer becomes 5,472.
$5,472
