Answer:

The first increase was of 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value of the product is x.

The first increase was of y.

The second increase is of 25%, that is, 1.25.

The final price was double the original, so 2x.

This situation can be modeled by the following equation:

xy(1.25) = 2x

We want to find y.

Simplifying by x

1.25y = 2

y = \frac{2}{1.25}

y = 1.6

After the first increase, the value was 1.6 of the original value, that is a increase as a percent of (1.6 - 1)*100 = 60%.

If f(x) = x2 – 2x and g(x) = 6x + 4, for which value of x does (f + g)(x) = 0?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) + g(x) = x² - 2x + 6x + 4 = x² + 4x + 4, hence

x² + 4x + 4 = 0 ← This is a perfect square in the form

(x + a)² = x² + 2ax + a²

Hence 2a = 4 ⇒ a = 2, thus

(x + 2)² = 0

x+ 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2 ( 2 equal roots )

Value of x = - 2
