Hi there!

mistake= step 2..

If you can see, the equation is the opposite so this means that to find the answer, your gonna have to add first.. instead of subtracting..

1.Add the terms:

$7+\frac{5}{4}=7\frac{5}{4}$

2.Simplifly the terms:

$7\frac{5}{4}=7\frac{25}{20}$

$\frac{4}{5}=\frac{16}{20}$

3.Subtract the terms:

$7\frac{25}{20}-\frac{16}{20}=7\frac{9}{20}$

Therefore, the mistake was step 2...

(a) Use the fundamental theorem of algebra to determine the number of roots for 2x^2 + 4x + 7

zysi [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A 2nd order polynomial such as this one will have 2 roots; a 3rd order polynomial 3 roots, and so on.

The quadratic formula is one of the faster ways (in this situation, at least) in which to find the roots. From 2x^2 + 4x + 7 we get a = 2, b = 4 and c = 7.

Then the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or, here, 4^2 - 4(2)(7), or -40. Because the discriminant is negative, we know that the roots will be complex and unequal.

Using the quadratic formula:

-4 ±√[-40] -4 ± 2i√10

x = ------------------ = ------------------

4 4

-2 ± i√10

Thus, the roots are x = ------------------

What is the area of triangle 1

Feliz [49]

Using the Pythagorean triples, one side is 3 units long, one side is 4 units long, and one side is 5 units long. To find the area of a right triangle, multiply length times width. Then divide total by two.

So,

(3•4)/2= 6 units
After scaling units, you should get 24 units.

A new television set was recently purchased for the common room in a residence hall for $436.80 including tax the tax rate is 4%

garri49 [273]

Answer:

The price of the television before taxes is $420

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The purchased price = cost price + taxes

- A new television set was recently purchased for the common room

in a residence hall for $436.80

- This price including tax

- The tax rate is 4%

- We need to find the price of the television before taxes

* Lets solve the problem

- Assume that the price of the television before tax is 100%

∵ The tax rate is 4%

∵ The price after tax = price before tax + tax

∵ The price before tax = 100%

∴ The price after tax = 100% + 4% = 104%

∵ 104% equivalent to $436.80

∴ 100 ⇒ ?

104 ⇒ 436.80

- By using cross multiplication

∴ ? = $\frac{(436.80)(100)}{104}=420$

∴ The price of the television before taxes is $420
