x^2-2x-1=x^2-2x+1-2=(x-1)^2-2=0

Solve for x:

(x-1)^2-2=0
(x-1)^2=2
x-1=\pm\sqrt2
x=1\pm\sqrt2

If a TV cost $3960.00 and toes on sale during the following week with a 25% discount, what will be the total cost of the TV? but
Free_Kalibri [48]

we have the price of TV is $3960.if we round off to the nearest tens we get same 3960 because we have 0 at the end which means lesser than 5 so 60 will be the nearest ten.

discount =\frac{25}{100} *3960=990

so $990 will be the discount.

and the cost of TV after discount is 3960-990=$2970

Number two is proportional just do Y over X y/x meaning divided all the y’s over the x’s so 25 divided by 5 30 divided by 6 35/7 40/8 they all equal 5 so it’s proportional
number three isn’t proportional when you do y/x they all come out differently so you do y2-y1 over x2-x1 16-4/4-2 16-4=12 4-2=2 then you divided 12/2 that equals 6 you do that again but with the next numbers but they don’t equal so it’s no equation no constant

A group of students made trees out of paper for a scene in a school play. The trees are shaped like square pyramids. The base is
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

26.4ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

I first converted the centimeter values to feet

140Cm x 30.48 = 4.59

70cm x 30.48 = 2.3

the paper required is approximately equal to the area of the pyramid.

area of pyramid is equal to area of triangle + base²

Are of triangle = 1/2 x b xh

= 4 x 1/2 x4.59x2.3 + (2.3)²

= 2 x 4.59 x 2.3 + 5.29

= 26.4 feet²

therefore it will take 26.4 feet² paper to make each tree, including the bottom.

Write the equation of an exponential function that passes through the points (2,48) and (5,750).
Otrada [13]
Ok, so the function form is y = a * bx.
Substitute in the values:
750 = a * b5
and
48 = a * b2
Then divide the two equations:
750/ 48 = (a * b5) / (a * b2)
So:
15.625 = b3
Take the cube root of both sides:
2.5 = b
Now, substitue b into one of the equations (the one with 48 has smaller numbers and is easier to work with.)
48 = a * 2.52
Simplify.
48 = a * 6.25
Divide both sides by 6.25
7.68 = a
Now substitute in a and b to write the exponential function:
y = 7.68 * 2.5x

Simple random sampling survey method

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple random sampling is an unbiased survey technique Hence it will represent all the parts of the city's population.

In statistics, a simple random sample is a subset of individuals (a sample) chosen from a larger set (a population). Each individual is chosen randomly and entirely by chance, such that each individual has the same probability of being chosen at any stage during the sampling process
