Answer:

J. The equation has one real solution and two complex solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex solutions come in pairs, so there can only be an even number of them.  So we can rule out G, H, and K.

To find the other roots, we can factor using either long division or grouping.  To use long division, see the attached picture.  To use grouping:

3x³ − 4x² + x − 10 = 0

3x³ − 6x² + 2x² + x − 10 = 0

3x² (x − 2) + (2x + 5) (x − 2) = 0

(x − 2) (3x² + 2x + 5) = 0

The other factor is 3x² + 2x + 5.  The discriminant of this is (2)² − 4(3)(5) = -56.  Since the discriminant is negative, the roots are complex.

Olives garden is only 10 yd.² and the watermelon plants she wants to grow require 2.5 yd squared each how many watermelon plants
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The answer is<em> 4.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Olives garden has area= 10 yd^2

Each watermelon plants she want to grow require an area= 2.5 yd^2

Hence, the number of watermelon plants she can grow in that garden is given by:

Number of watermelon plants she can grow= (Total area)/( Area 1 watermelon plant requires)

Hence, Number of watermelon plants she can grow= \dfrac{10}{2.5}=4

Hence, she can grow 4 watermelon plants in Olives garden.

Answer:

m∠QPT = 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can use exterior angle theorem to find m∠QPT. Exterior Angle Theorem states that the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two remote angles in that same triangle.

  • This means that 6x + 20 = x + 40 + 4x - 5. Then, we can plug in the value of x into 6x + 20 and find the measure of ∠QPT.

2. (Solving)

Step 1: Combine like terms.

  • 6x + 20 = (x+4x)+(40-5)
  • 6x + 20 = 5x + 35

Step 2: Subtract 20 from both sides.

  • 6x + 20 - 20 = 5x + 35 - 20
  • 6x = 5x +15

Step 3: Subtract 5x from both sides.

  • 6x - 5x = 5x +15 - 5x
  • x = 15

Step 4: Check if solution is correct.

  • 6(15)+20=(15)+40+4(15)-5
  • 90 + 20 = 15 + 40 + 60 - 5
  • 110 = 55 + 60 - 5
  • 110 = 115 - 5
  • 110 = 110

3. Now, let's plug in 15 for 6x + 20:

  • 6(15)+20
  • 90+20
  • 110

Therefore, m∠QPT = 110°.

Last year, Keiko had $20,000 to invest. She invested some of it in an account that paid %7 simple interest per year, and she inv
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

P_2 = \$6,000\\P_1 = \$14,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of simple interest is:

I = P_0rt

Where I is the interest earned after t years

r is the interest rate

P_0 is the initial amount

We know that the investment was $20,000 in two accounts

_______________________________________________

<u><em>For the first account</em></u> r = 0.07 per year.

Then the formula is:

I_1 = P_1r_1t

Where

P_1 is the initial amount in account 1 at a rate r_1 during t = 1 year

I_1 = P_1(0.07)(1)\\\\I_1 = 0.07P_1

<u><em>For the second account </em></u>r = 0.05 per year.

Then the formula is:

I_2 = P_2r_2t

Where

P_2 is the initial amount in account 2 at a rate r_2 during t = 1 year

Then

I_2 = P_2(0.05)(1)\\\\I_2 = 0.05P_2

We know that the final profit was I $1,280.

So

I = I_1 + I_2=1,280

Substituting the values I_1, I_2 and I we have:

1,280 = 0.07P_1 + 0.05P_2

As the total amount that was invested was $20,000 then

P_0 = P_1 + P_2 = 20,000

Then we multiply the second equation by -0.07 and add it to the first equation:

0.07P_1 + 0.05P_2 = 1.280\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ +\\-0.07P_1 -0.07P_2 = -1400\\-------------

-0.02P_2 = -120\\\\P_2 = 6,000

Then P_1 = 14,000

The Sunrise Cafe gets tea bags in boxes of l,000. If the cafe charges $1.75 for each cup of tea, and each cup of tea gets one te
WARRIOR [948]
Well you would do $1.75 x 1,000. That would be 1,750$.

Then you would take away that 95$ they spent buying the box of tea bags and their total would be 1,750$ - 95$ = 1,655$.
