Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Left = 2000 * (1/2)^x

Try it.

x = 1

Left = 2000 * (1/2)^1

left = 2000  * 1/2

left = 1000

x = 3

left = 2000 (1/2)^3

left = 2000 (1/8)

left = 250

x = 4

left = 2000 * (1/16)

left = 125

from her on the function does not work accurately. You have to modify the algorithm.

Solve (x + 1)2 – 4(x + 1) + 2 = 0 using substitution. u = Select the solution(s) of the original equation.
Semenov [28]

(x - 1)2 - 4(X + 1) + 2 = 0

2x - 2 - 4x - 4 + 2 = 0

(2x - 4x) - 4 = 0

-2x = 4

x = 4/-2

x = -2

Solve the equation using square roots. x2 + 10 = 9
Oksana_A [137]
x^2 + 10 = 9

Subtract 10 from both sides.

x^2 = -1

Since the square of a number, x, equals a negative number, -1, the answer cannot be a real number because the square of a real number is always non-negative. Therefore, there is no real number solution to this equation.

Answer: <span>B. no real number solutions</span>
