4c^2-8c-1=0 complete the square round to nearest hundredth

Mathematics

Move constant to other side
add 1
4c^2-8c=1
divide by 4 to make leading coeficient 1
c^2-2c=1/4
take 1/2 of linear coeficient and square it
-2/2=-1, (-1)^2=1
add that to both sides
c^2-2c+1=1/4+1
factor perfect squaer and add
(c-1)^2=5/4
square root both sides
c-1=+/-(√5)/2
add 1
c=1+/-(√5)/2

c=2.12 or -0.12

a set of bike racks cost $356. The price is marked up to make 40% profit. calculate the markup price of the bike racks
Nana76 [90]

Answer: 140%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must find out how much you'll be making. To do this, multiply 356 by .4 (to get 142.4). If you're making 40% profit, you must add 142.4 to 356 (or else you'd be losing money!). We now know whoever sold these bike racks made 498.4 dollars. Divide this by 356 and get 1.4 which converts to a 140% markup up price (also meaning the price the racks were sold at is 1.4 times the price bought).

Hope this answers your question! Best of luck.

Find the slope of the line that contains the points named.<br> P(1, 2), Q(3, 4
AnnyKZ [126]
P(1, 2), Q(3, 4)
we find the slope dividing the y over the x, that is:
m = (4 - 2)/(3 - 1) = 2/2
m = 1
and then use the line equation for a point and slope:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where (x1, y1) is a point through which the line passes, we use P(1,2):
y - 2 = 2(x - 1)
y - 2 = 2x - 2
y = 2x
therefore the slope is 2 and the y-axis intercept is 0
