Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2x² - 3x - 15 = 5
2x² - 3x - 20 = 0
Quadratic formula
x = [3 ± √(3² – 4·2(-20))] / [2·2]
= [3 ± √169] / 4
= [3 ± 13] /4
= -2.5, 4
What 2 numbers multiply to 14 and add to -9?
-7 and -2
(y-7)(y-2)=0
set to zero
y-7=0
y=7
y-2=0
y=2
y=2 or 7
Answer:
6.25%
Step-by-step explanation:
discount/ normal price
5/80
And we are trying to find out the percentage, so
x/100
Set the 2 equations equal to each other
5/80=x/100
Cross multiply
80x=500
Divide by 80 on both sides
x= 6.25
