Answer:
175%
Step-by-step explanation:
1 would be 100%
3/4 would be 75%
100%+75%=175%
My initial answer was $2750.45, and I will show you my calculations.
Calc : 6774.5 ÷ 100 = 67.745
67.745 × 2.7 = 182.9115
182.9115 × 22 = 4024.053
6774.5 - 4024.053 = 2750.45
= $2750.45
At first I thought this was correct, but after studying my answer I realise that the amount of interest would rise as the amount of money went up, therefore my calculations are very wrong. If I work out the answer, I will get back to you, but the calculation is more complicated than I first predicted
Answer:
x = - 1 and x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0
Let u = x - 3, then
u² + 2u - 8 = 0 ← solve for u
(u + 4)(u - 2) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for u
u + 4 = 0 ⇒ u = - 4
u - 2 = 0 ⇒ u = 2
Convert back to x, that is
x - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = - 1
x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = 5
