<span>1/8 + 2(1/2m + 5) = 1/4m + 7 would equal m=-25/6</span>
Your original answer is correct.If you set up a ratio table, it works. For example:
So, they amount of money she's taxed on is $55. We get this by doing 175-20.
$55 is equal to 106% because 6% is tax
Now, you want to find just 100% which is the same as no tax. To get from 106 to 11, you divide by 1.06. So, you also divide 55 by 1.06 to get $51.89
She can't go over this because she won't have enough money.
So, the answer is x≤$51.89
Hope this helps!
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
v = 7
is the value for which
x = (-21 - √301)/10
is a solution to the quadratic equation
5x² + 21x + v = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
x = (-21 - √301)/10 .....................(1)
is a root of the quadratic equation
5x² + 21x + v = 0 ........................(2)
We want to find the value of v foe which the equation is true.
Consider the quadratic formula
x = [-b ± √(b² - 4av)]/2a ..................(3)
Comparing (3) with (2), notice that
b = 21
2a = 10
=> a = 10/2 = 5
and
b² - 4av = 301
=> 21² - 4(5)v = 301
-20v = 301 - 441
-20v = -140
v = -140/(-20)
v = 7
That is a = 5, b = 21, and v = 7
The equation is then
5x² + 21x + 7 = 0
