What are the possible values of x in 8^2+4x = -1

jeyben [28]

Answer:

So we can simplify this to

36+4x=-1

We can subtract by 64 on both sides. 4x = -37. Therefore the answer to this is

x = -37/4 = -9.25.

So the answer for x is -16.25. If you were trying to do a quadratic equation then sorry because you worded it wrong, and I solved properly.

You damage your car and it will cost $2,700 to repair. You have a $500 deductible. How much will the insurance company pay? A.$5

artcher [175]

Answer:

After finding the money we were short with, we find that Option-b, that is, $2200 is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost to repair the damaged car is $2700. We have $500.

Insurance company is a company that gives the payment of someone's valuable items when they are lost or get damaged. For example, home insurance, car insurance, life insurance and much more.

Here we can see that we are short with $2700 - $500 = $2200.

So, to complete the payment, insurance company will pay $2200.

Clearly, the correct option is Option-b.
