Answer:
The answer is either 5.26 or 5 I think its 5.26
Step-by-step explanation: The reason why I think its the two answers I said is because 10 is 10 percent of 100 so 9.5 is 9.5 percent which makes me think that
combine like terms: -5p > -10
divide by -5 on both sides: p > 2
The correct question is

Penelope determined the solutions of the quadratic function by completing the square.f(x) = 4x² + 8x + 1
–1 = 4x² + 8x
–1 = 4(x² + 2x)
–1 + 1 = 4(x² + 2x + 1)
0 = 4(x + 2)²
0 = (x + 2)²
0 = x + 2
–2 = x
What error did Penelope make in her work?
we have that
</span>f(x) = 4x² + 8x + 1
to find the solutions of the quadratic function
let
f(x)=0
4x² + 8x + 1=0
Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the
constant to the opposite side of the equation
(4x² + 8x)=-1
Factor the
leading coefficient
4*(x² + 2x)=-1
Complete the square Remember to balance the equation
by adding the same constants to each side.
4*(x² + 2x+1)=-1+4 --------> ( added 4 to both sides)
Rewrite as perfect squares
4*(x+1)²=3
(x+1)²=3/4--------> (+/-)[x+1]=√3/2
(+)[x+1]=√3/2---> x1=(√3/2)-1----> x1=(√3-2)/2
(-)[x+1]=√3/2----> x2=(-2-√3)/2
therefore
the answer is
<span>
Penelope should have added 4 to both sides instead of adding 1.</span>
Answer:
8.31 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the cost of one share of Apple stock, C=$120
Rate is the increment of the stock value, R= 5%/week=0.05 / week.
Assuming that after t week, the stock has been sold for $180.
Since the stock value increased at 5% every week, so, the interest is compounded weekly, so
[taking log both sides]
weeks
Hence, after 8.31 weeks the stock has been sold for $180.
