Answer:

= £135

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price = 100%

Percentage increase = 20%

New price = 100% + 20% = 120%

If 120% = £162

What about 100% = ?

= (100 x 162) ÷ 120

= 16200 ÷ 120

= £135

It is given 5 and h + 1 are the roots of the quadratic equation x² + (k - 1)x - 5 = 0,where h and k are constant.Find the value
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Hello,

<u>k=-3 and h=-2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

5\ is\ a \ root \of \ x^2+(k-1)*x-5=0\\\\5^2+(k-1)*5-5=0\\\\5*(k-1)+20=0\\\\k-1=\dfrac{-20}{5} \\\\k=-4+1\\\\\boxed{k=-3}\\

h+1 is thus a root of x²+(-3-1)*x-5=0

x²-4x-5=0

x²+x-5x-5=0

x(x+1)-5(x+1)=0

(x+1)(x-5)=0

h+1=-1

<u>h=-2</u>

Using conversions of mixed numbers, the numbers that are equivalent to 2 and 7/9 are given by:

25/9 and 2.777.

<h3>What are the conversions of the mixed number 2 and 7/9?</h3>

To convert to decimal, we just add the integer part with the fractional part converted to decimal(dividing the numerator by the denominator), hence:

2 and 7/9 = 2 + 7/9 = 2.7777.

To convert to fraction, the procedure is similar, we just apply the least common multiple to add the fraction, as follows:

2 + \frac{7}{9} = \frac{2 \times 9 + 7}{9} = \frac{25}{9}

Hence the numbers that are equivalent to 2 and 7/9 are given by:

25/9 and 2.777.
