To get days from minutes, you should get to hours because the calculations are ten times easier. To find the amount of hours 8640 minutes is, divide 8640 by 60. 8640/60 = 144. 8640 minutes is 144 hours, and 144 divided by 24 is 6 days. There are 6 days in 8640 minutes.
<u>old:</u> $16
<u>new:</u> $20
<u>percent increase</u>
-> formula: (new-old / old) x 100
(20-16 / 16) x 100
4/16 x 100
0.25 x 100
answer: 25% increase
The solutions would be 3 and 9
Answer:
A quadratic equation is some thing like
(x+2)^2
or
(x+2)(x+5)
In order to solve them, the most basic method is the FOIL method
F-First
O-Outside
I-Inner
L-Last
So for example
(x+2)^2
Which is basically
(x+2)(x+2)
So the first is the 2 Xs
(x+2)(x+2)
x*x=x^2
The outer is the x and the 2,
(x+2)(x+2)
2*x=2x
Now the Inner which is the 2 and the x
(x+2)(x+2)
2*x=2x
And finally the last which is the 2 and the second 2
(x+2)(x+2)
2*2=4
Now add them all up
X^2+2x+2x+4
Combine like terms
x^2+4x+4
There you have it
Do the same with every other quadratic equation
