Answer:
x=12 makes (X-12)/(x-8) equal to zero
x=8 makes (X-12)/(x-8) undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-12)/(x-8) = 0
The first step is to multiply each side by x-8
(x-8) *(x-12)/(x-8) = 0 * (x-8)
This cancels the denominator. x≠ 8 because the denominator would equal 0 and then it becomes undefined.
x-12 = 0
Add 12 to each side
x-12+12 = 0+12
x = 12

To model the scenario, the following will be the numerical coefficients for the variables: 0.05 for nickels (5 cents), 0.10 for dime (10 cents) and 0.25 for quaters (25 cents). Thus the model/equation is, $1.87 = 0.25q + 0.10d + 0.05n + 60.
I think that the answer is $569.8. 550 times 0.072 times 0.5 (half a year) is 19.8, then 550 + 19.8 is 569.8.
