Answer:
Solve the equation for x by finding a, b, and c of the quadratic then applying the quadratic formula.
Exact Form:
x = − 70 ± √4210/30
Decimal Form:
x = −0.03
Step-by-step explanation:
5x(6x+28)=−23
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
30x2+140x=−23
Step 2: Subtract -23 from both sides.
30x2+140x−(−23)=−23−(−23)
30x2+140x+23=0
Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=30, b=140, c=23.
x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a
x=−(140)±√(140)2−4(30)(23)/2(30)
x=−140±√16840/60
x=−7/3+1/30√4210 or x=−7/3+−1/30√4210
200*(107%)^x
x is the number of quarters that passed.
each year has 4 quarters, so 12 yaers would have: 12*4 = 48 quarters
200*(107%)^48 = 5146
Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b is the equation of a line;
m=slope , b= y-intercept
You can find the slope with this following equation: (y(2)-y(1))/(x(2)-x(1))
In this case the points are (0,4) and (-2,-3). The first set being (0,4) and the second (-2,-3). This means (0,4) can be expressed as (x(1),y(1)) and (-2,-3) expressed as (x(2),y(2)). Plugging these numbers into the slope equation gives us: (-3-4)/(-2-0) = -7/-2 = 7/2.
m= 7/2 ; so we have : y= (7/2)x+b
We are give a set of points which it passes through, we can simply plug them in:
4 = (7/2)(0)+b (0 is the x and 4 is the y)
We get 4 = 0 +b .... 4=b
our final equation is : y=(7/2)x+4
