Answer:

The amount in pounds  ≈ £ 442.78

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of the electricity in the school in January was 44277.6 pence. The cost of the electricity bill in pounds can be represented below.

Let us find the number of pence that makes a pounds (£).

1 pence sterling = £ 0.01

44277.6 pence  = ?

cross multiply

44277.6 ×  0.01

44277.6 ×  0.01 = 442.776 pounds

Answer:

£442.78

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 100 pence in 1 Pound (£)

We want to determine the value of 44277·6 pence in pounds.

Expressing it as a ratio

100:1 = 44277·6:x

\dfrac{100}{1}=\dfrac{44277.6}{y}  \\$Cross multiply\\100y=44277.6\\Divide both sides by 100\\\dfrac{100y}{100}=\dfrac{44277.6}{100}\\y=442.776\\y=\£442.78$ (to the nearest penny)

44277·6 pence=£442.78 (to the nearest penny)

mike charges 100 dollars service charge plus 65 dollars per hour.  

amy charges 40 dollars service charge plus 80 dollars per hour.  

the cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * x.  

the cost to repair from amy is 40 + 80 * x.  

let x = 3 and you get:  

the cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * 3 = 295 dollars.  

the cost to repaid from amy is 40 + 80 * 3 = 280 dollars.  

as long as the time to repair is 3 hours or less, the cost to repair will be cheaper from amy.

If the discriminant is positive how many solutions are there
ddd [48]

Answer:

b^2-4ac>0 yields 2 real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of real roots for a quadratic, we apply the discriminate. The discriminate is the inside portion of the square root from the quadratic formula.

• b^2-4ac>0 yields 2 real roots

• b^2-4ac=0 yields 1 real root

• [tx]b^2-4ac<0[/tex] yields no real roots

Example:

4x^2-7x+2=0 where a=4, b=-7, and c=2

b^2-4ac=(-7)^2-4(4)(2)=49-32=17.

It has 2 real roots
