It's important because changing the order of operations changes the answer
Answer: y= 4 or y= -12
Step-by-step explanation:
Y²-8y+16=64.
Rearrange
Y²-8y+16-64=0
Y²-8y-48=0
(Y²+12y)-(4y-48)=0
Y(y+12)-4(y+12)=0
(Y-4)=0 or (y+12)=0
Y-4=0 or y+12=0
Y=4 or y=-12
$199.95 x 25% = $199.95 x .25 = $49.9875 ~ $49.99
$199.95 - 49.99 = $149.96 (actual balance) If Lenny pay $14.99 for 12 months the total payment would be: $14.99 x 12 =$179.88
Lenny would have paid an additional amount of $29.92 ($179.88 - 149.96) after making the final payment.
I hope this helps since you did not mention what you were calculating, so I include everything that can be done to this problem.
Answer:
Philip, after 12 seconds, is 13.44 meters farther ahead after 12 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Philip
