Answer:

$37500

Step-by-step explanation:

For this we can simply create a proportion of the percentages.

.4 / 1 == 15000 / x

Now we solve for x:

x = 15000/.4

x = 37500

Thus, the cost of the car was $37,500.

Cheers.

Solve for x in the equation x squared + 11 x + StartFraction 121 Over 4 EndFraction = StartFraction 125 Over 4 EndFraction.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

● x^2 + 11x + 121/4 = 125/4

Substract 125/4 from both sides:

● x^2 + 11x + 121/4-125/4= 125/4 -125/4

● x^2 + 11x - (-4/4) = 0

● x^2 +11x -(-1) = 0

● x^2 + 11 x + 1 = 0

This is a quadratic equation so we will use the determinanant (b^2-4ac)

● a = 1

● b = 11

● c = 1

● b^2-4ac = 11^2-4*1*1 = 117

So this equation has two solutions:

● x = (-b -/+ √(b^2-4ac) ) / 2a

● x = (-11 -/+ √(117) ) / 2

● x = (-11 -/+ 3√(13))/ 2

● x = -0.91 or x = -10.9

Round to the nearest unit

● x = -1 or x = -11

The solutions are { -1,-11}
