(5x+1)² = 7; expand: 25x² + 10x +1 = 7 or 25x² + 10x -6 = 0
Solve this quadratic for x:
x = [-b + √(b² - 4ac)]/2a and x = [-b - √(b² - 4ac)]/2a
Plug the values and you'll find :
x = (- √7 - 1)/5 (answer C)
x = (+√7 -1)/5 (answer E)
Answer:
<h2>f(0) = -4</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:

<span>base and color are in a ratio of 32:1, where color is "x"
924-x/x=32/1
924-x=32x</span><span>33x=924
x = 28 (gallons of color)</span>
The total amount of interest earned each year will be
