Answer:
They multiplied the exponents instead of adding.
Step-by-step explanation:
Essentially, 2^2 x 2^3 is (2)(2) x (2)(2)(2) which is 5, not 6
119 times .5 equals $59.5
$119-$59.5=$59.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite this quadratic equation in standard form: 2n^2 + 3n + 54 = 0. Identify the coefficients of the n terms: they are 2, 3, 54.
Find the discriminant b^2 - 4ac: It is 3^2 - 4(2)(54), or -423. The negative sign tells us that this quadratic has two unequal, complex roots, which are:
-(3) ± i√423 -3 ± i√423
n = ------------------- = ------------------
2(2) 4
So here is the answer. Normally, 10 people have 20 legs since each person has 2 legs each. But given the scenario that two people don't have legs, this would mean 20 minus 4, is 16 legs. Then one person has 3 legs, 16 plus 3 and it is 19. And then, another person has one leg, 19 plus 1 is 20. Therefore, the total legs would still be 20. Hope this helps. The dog does not count.
