Answer:$143.84Step-by-step explanation:Given the following question:Initial price of the chair was $124....Marked up 16% (which means the price has increased by 16%)Find the new price of the chair...In order to find the answer, we find 16% of a given number in till it equals 124 which was the initial price.16% of 143.84 is 124143.84 is already rounded to the nearest centWhich means the new price of the chair is "$143.84"
<span>I think you know by now that I strongly encourage everyone to shoot a proper round and whatever the score is, to submit it to our Records Officer, Giles Conn. Think of it as an annual competition (a) to wear him out, and (b) to see if we can altogether, beat last year's tally. Also, for the outdoor season rounds, you can have a go at achieving the St Wilfred trophy. I've won it 3 years running (last year jointly with Terry Skinner), but they wouldn't let me keep it this time, sadly.</span>
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}
