A quota is when one country limits the amount of a good that can be imported from another country.
This is done in order to give prominence to domestic suppliers and producers. If you limit the amount of foreign goods, then its price will rise, which will make consumers buy more domestic goods and thus help develop domestic trade.
The answer is : a^2=1 x 2^n-1
To check if it’s correct
a^2= 1 x 2^2-1
a^2 = 1x 2
a^2 = 2
Hope this helps!
Set x equal to the amount of money Kim gets, and y for Molly's money.
x = 2/5y, since the ratio is 2:5.
y = 105 + x, since Molly has 105 more pounds than Kim.
Substitute x into this equation, so that y = 105 + 2/5y. Subtract 2/5y from both sides to get 3/5y = 105. Divide each side by 0.6 (equivalent to 3/5) and you get y = 175, which is how much Molly has. Kim gets 2/5 of Molly's share (or 105 fewer pounds), so she has 70.
70 + 175 (Kim and Molly's shares) is equal to 245. Therefore, Laura receives the remaining 140 pounds.
140/385 = a/100
Cross multiply so that 385a is 14000. Divide by 385 to get 36.4 (rounded).
Thus, Laura receives about 36.4% of the total money. Hope this helps (:
Answer:
One solution x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation:
Multiply this equation by 2:
Use distributive property:
Combine the like terms:
Thus, this equation has one solution x = 2
The value of b^2-4ac is known as the discriminant of a quadratic function, and can tell you how many roots exist of this function depending on what it is equal to.
Start by moving the -1 to the other side, as we need this function to equal zero.
2x^2 + 3x + 1 = 0
This is now the standard form ax^2 + bx + c = 0. Plug each value that corresponds into the discriminant equation.
b^2-4ac
(3)^2 - 4(2)(1)
9 - 8
1
The value of the discriminant is 1, meaning that two real roots exist for the function described.
