Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentation: y= x^2 + 11x + 24. Thanks.
Because x^2 is positive, the graph of this parabola opens up.
We can find the vertex and roots (zeros) as follows, using the quadratic formula:
With a = 1, b = 11 and c = 24,
-11 ± √ [ (11^2-4(1)(24) ] -11 ± √25
x = ------------------------------------ = --------------- = -3 and x = -8
2(1) 2
This tells us that the x-intercepts are at (-3, 0) and (-8, 0). The minimum value is at x = -b / (2a), which here is x = -11 / [2] = -5 1/2 (which is halfway between the zeros).
The vertex (and thus, the minimum) is at (-5 1/2, f(-5 1/2) ).
In this item, we are informed that the order of the entries does not matter in determination the number of ways in which the Archie can choose for his party. Because the arrangement or order is not important, this type of problem uses the concept of COMBINATION.
The equation for combination is,
nCr = n!/((n - r)!(r!))
nCr is read as "combination of n taken r".
Substituting the known values to the equation,
15C6 = 15! / ((15 - 6)!(6!))
= 5005
Hence, there are 5005 ways in which Archee can choose the 6 entrees for his party.

Answer: $7,853.16</h3>
Work Shown:
A = P*(1+r/n)^(n*t)
A = 4750*(1+0.10/2)^(2*10)
A = 12,603.164099436
A = 12,603.16
That represents the account balance after 10 years. To find the interest only, subtract off the deposit amount.
interest = A-P = 12,603.16 - 4,750 = 7,853.16
