The answer is A. The reason for this is because 2% of $300 is $6. Since 6 is less than 8, the answer is A.
1. <span>-0.9x+2.8=4.1
First subtract 2.8 from both sides.
-0.9x = 1.3
Now divide both sides by -0.9.
x = -1.4444..
This can be rounded to -1.44
</span><span>c) -1.44
2. Jordan has 650 pennies. He'll give 85 to his brother and split the rest with his sister.
</span>d) 85+2x=650
Synthetic division yields
-3 | 1 5 4 -6
. | -3 -6 6
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
. | 1 2 -2 0
which translates to
with remainder 0. Now by the quadratic formula,
and so
C, because the independent variable would be the variable that is changing -- in this case, the temperature. The dependent variable changes according to the independent variable, and is called so because it depends on the temperature of the pool.
The answers are:
__________________________
[B]: "√12 " ; AND:
__________________________
[D]: "<span>√20" .
__________________________
Note: "Irrational numbers" have decimals that are: 1) non-terminating; AND: 2) non-repeating.
__________________________
Consider the answer choices given; and consider the given information that there "should be no more than one answer.
__________________________________
Consider the following answer choices:
__________________________________
Choice A) "</span><span>√9" = 3 . Rule out this choice.
__________________________________
Choice C) "</span><span>√16" = 4 . Rule out this choice.
__________________________________
Choice E) "</span><span>√25" = 5. Rule out this choice.
_________________________________
We are left with 2 (two) remaining answer choices:
[B]: "</span>√12" ; and: [D]: "<span>√20" .
_________________________________
If there are more than one answer, then these two choices should be the correct answer. However, let us explore these two choices, using a calculator.
____________________________
[B]: </span>"√12" = 3.4641016151377546
[D]: "√20" = 4.4721359549995794
_________________________________
These two answer choices should the correct answers.
