Apples went up 0.75 a lb
p is the start price so new price is p + 0.75
we buy 3 lbs
3 ( p+ 0.75) = 5.88
now solve
3p + 2.25 = 5.88
-2.25 -2.25
3p = 3.63
/3 /3
p = 1.21 a lb
Answer:
<h2>x = 3</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
We have the triangles 45° - 45° - 90° and 30° - 60° - 90°.
The sides of those triangles are in ratio:
1 : 1 : √2 and 1 : √3 : 2
Therefore
If AC = 6√2 then AB = BC = 6
If BC = 6 then x = 6 : 2 = 3
Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
and when multiply by negative, flip sign
8+h>2+3h
minus h both sides
8+h-h>2+3h-h
8+0>2+2h
8>2+2h
minus 2 both sides
8-2>2-2+2h
6>0+2h
6>2h
divide by 2 both sides
6/2>2h/2
3>1h
3>h

You would use the formula for the specific term you wish to find;
The formula is:

a = starting value of the sequence
d = the common difference (i.e. the difference between any two consecutive terms of the sequence)
n = the value corresponding to the position of the desired term in the sequence (i.e. 1 is the first term, 2 is the second, etc.)
Un = the actual vaue of the the term
For example, if we have the arithmetic sequence:
2, 6, 10, 14, ...
And let's say we want to find the 62nd term;
Then:
a = 2
d = 4
(i.e. 6 - 2 = 4, 10 - 6 = 4, 14 - 10 = 4;
You should always get the same number no matter which two terms you find the difference between so long as they are both
consecutive [next to each other], otherwise you are not dealing with an arithmetic sequence)
n = 62
And so:

Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of -3 are 1, -1, 3, +3. So:
| 2 -7 8 -3
<u>1 | 2 -5 3</u>
| 2 -5 3 0
<u> 1 | 2 -3 </u>
2 -3 0
So the factorization is (x-1)² (2x-3)=0. So:


Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of -4 are 1, -1, 2, -2, 4, -4. So:
| 1 -1 0 -4
<u>2 | 2 2 </u>
1 2 2 0
So the factorization is (x-2)(x²+x+2)=0 . When calculating the discriminant of the trinomial, it is concluded that it has no roots since the result is negative. So you only have one solution.


Synthetic division is used since the equation is of the third degree. The divisors of 2 are 1, -1, 2, -2. So:
| 6 7 9 2
<u>-2 | -12 10 -2</u>
6 -5 1 0
So the factorization is (x+2)(6x²-5x+1)=0 . The quadratic equation is solved by the general formula:
