Set up an equation to solve.
70% of original price equals $550, the amount Susan is paying.
0.70x = 550
Sorry if this is wrong and it doesn't hep but I got 32
Answer:
The polynomial will be P(x) = - 5 (x + 2)²(x - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of the polynomial P(x) is 3 and it has zeros at x = - 2 with multiplicity 2 and at x = 3 with multiplicity 1.
Therefore, (x + 2)² and (x - 3) are the factors of the equation.
Let the polynomial is
P(x) = a(x + 2)²(x - 3) ........... (1)
Now, the polynomial passes through the point (2,80).
So, from equation (1) we gat,
80 = a(4)²(-1)
⇒ a = - 5
Therefore, the polynomial will be P(x) = - 5 (x + 2)²(x - 3) (Answer)
A. 4x + 9 = 34
<u> - 9 - 9</u>
<u>4x</u> = <u>25</u>
4 4
x = 6.25
B. (x - 4)(x + 2) = 0
x - 4 = 0 U x + 2 = 0
<u> + 4 + 4</u> <u> - 2 - 2</u>
x = 4 x = -2
C. 2x² - 6x + 4 = 0
2(x²) - 2(3x) + 2(2) = 0
<u>2(x² - 3x + 2)</u> = <u>0</u>
2 2
x² - 3x + 2 = 0
x = <u>-(-3) +/- √((-3)² - 4(1)(2))</u>
2(1)
x = <u>3 +/- √(9 - 8)</u>
2
x = <u>3 +/- √(1)
</u> 2<u>
</u> x =<u> 3 +/- 1
</u> 2
x = <u>3 + 1</u> U x = <u>3 - 1</u>
2 2
x = <u>4</u> x = <u>2</u>
2 2
x = 2 x = 1
