Answer:

x = - 9, x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - x - 90 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 90) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 1)

The factors are - 10 and + 9, since

- 10 × 9 = - 90 and - 10 + 9 = - 1 , thus

(x - 10)(x + 9) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10

x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = - 9

lesser x = - 9

greater x = 10

3 On a coordinate grid, the location of a lighthouse is at L, and the location of a buoy is at B. At noon, a ship is at the midp

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

$(\frac{1}{2}, 2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the midpoint formula, $M(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$ , we can find the coordinates that represents the position of the ship at noon.

Let $L(-4, 7) = (x_1, y_1)$ (given on the coordinate plane)

$B(5, -3) = (x_2, y_2)$ (given also)

Plug in the values into the formula and solve as follows:

$M(\frac{-4 + 5}{2}, \frac{7 +(-3)}{2})$

$M(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{7 - 3}{2})$

$M(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{4}{2})$

$M(\frac{1}{2}, 2)$

Position of the ship at noon is best represented at $(\frac{1}{2}, 2)$

Mason sells life insurance policies. He earns a 12 percent commission on every policy he sells. He made the following sales this

scZoUnD [109]

Answer: Mason made $185.00

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first 10 suits he made $12.50 each suit, then he made $20 for the additional 3. (Just ignore the "suits part ._.)

250*.05=12.50

250*.08=20

12.50*10=125

3*20=60

125+60=185.
