Answer:
21 Students
Step-by-step explanation:
140 x .15 = 21
Finding the discriminate of a quadratic formula determines the number and type of answers.
The formula is b^2 -4(ac)
a = 6. b = -7 and c = -4
-7^2 -4(6*-4) = 145
The answer is a positive number so this means there are 2 real solutions.
3% interest on 5,000 = 150
275 (the total amount wanted) - 150 (from initial investment)= 125
x (5%) =125
x (0.05)= 125
x/0.05)= 125/0.05
x=2500
you need to invest 2500 at 5% to get the additional 125
125 plus 150= 275
Answer:
Dog is 2 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let dog's age = d
Let friend's age = f
Your dog is 8 years younger than your friend:
d +8 = f
In 2 years, your friend will be three times as old as your dog:
3(d+2) = (f+2)
3d+6 = f+2
3d = f - 4
(sub in f=d+8 from above)
3d = f - 4
3d = d+8 - 4
2d = 4
d = 2
