Make an equation system based on the problem
<span>Jason and Mara have $74
</span>⇒ j + m = 74
<span> Jason has $6 more than 1/3 as much money as Mara has
</span>⇒ j = (1/3)m + 6
<span>
Then, solve the equation by subtitution
j + m = 74
(1/3)m + 6 + m = 74
(1/3)m + m = 74 - 6
(1/3)m + (3/3)m = 68
(4/3)m = 68
m = 68 </span>÷ 4/3
m = 68 × 3/4
m = 51
Mara has $51

j + m = 74
j + 51 = 74
j = 74 - 51
j = 23
Jason has $23

Factoring quadratics 4x^2-13x+3=0
ozzi

Answer:

X=3,1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x²-(12+1)x+3=0

or,4x²-12x-x+3=0

or,4x(x-3)-1(x-3)=0

or,(4x-1)(x-3)=0

Either,4x-1=0➡️ 4x=1

X=1/4

OR,x-3=0➡️ X=3

7. <u>You have $367.50 after two years.</u>

<em>Start by converting 2.5% into a decimal (divide by 100) and multiplying by 350 to find the rate of interest per year.</em>

<em>350(0.025) = 8.75</em>

<em>Since it's for two years, multiply by two. </em>

<em>8.75 x 2 = 17.5.</em>

<em>Add it on to he original, and we have</em>

<em>350 + 17.5 = 367. 5, or $367.50 when converted back to money. </em>

8. <u>The annual interest rate is 2.4%</u>

<em>find the interest rate per year: </em>

<em>120/2.5 = 48 dollars per year. this is the interest amount, we want to find the interest rate. To do this, find what % of 2000 that 48 is equal to. </em>

<em>Set up a system of equations and cross multiply.</em>

<em />\frac{48}{2000} = \frac{x}{100}<em />

<em>2000x = 48(100) > 2000x = 4800</em>

<em>2000</em><em>/2000</em><em>x = 4800</em><em>/2000 > </em><em>x = 2.4</em>

<em>So, the interest rate is 2.4%. </em>

9.  <u>the interest paid is $300 after six months, and $600 after a year.</u>

<em>Find the interest rate, similar to problem 7. </em>

<em>3000 x 0.2 = 600. This means the interest paid is $600 a year. In six months, the total will be half, or $300.</em>

10. <u>four years.</u>

<em>Find interest rate. </em>

<em>200(0.035) = $7/year</em>

<em>Remember that value. Subtract needed from current.</em>

<em>228 - 200 = $28. </em>

<em>So, we have an interest rate of $7 a year and we need $28. Normally, we'd solve using an expression, but in this case we can use simple multiplication. Knowing that 7 x 4 = 28, We can decide that it will take four years. </em>

A function is shown: f(x) = 36x² - 1.
givi [52]

Based on the given function, the equivalent function that best shows the x-intercepts on the graph is f(x) = (6x - 1)(6x + 1)

<h3>What are equivalent functions?</h3>

Equivalent functions are different functions that have equal values when evaluated and compared

<h3>How to determin the equivalent function that best shows the x-intercepts on the graph?</h3>

The function is given as:

f(x) = 36x^2 - 1

Express 1 as 1^2

f(x) = 36x^2 - 1^2

Express 36x^2 as (6x)^2

f(x) = (6x)^2 - 1^2

Apply the difference of two squares.

This is represented as:

(a + b)(a - b) = a^2 - b^2

So, we have the following equation

f(x) = (6x - 1)(6x + 1)

Based on the given function, the equivalent function that best shows the x-intercepts on the graph is f(x) = (6x - 1)(6x + 1)
