Answer:

Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of airfare = $243

Amount spent per day = $72

Which expression can he use to help him find the cost of the trip?

Let

x = number of days spent in Alaska

Total cost of the trip = Cost of airfare + (Amount spent per day * number of days spent in Alaska)

= 243 + (72 * x)

= 243 + 72x

Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x

If he spent 4 days on the trip

Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x

= 243 + 72(4)

= 243 + 288

= $531

$1+\dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{2},1-\dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is $4x^{2}-8x-1$

Let $a$ be the coefficient of $x^{2}$

Let $b$ be the coefficient of $x$

Let $c$ be the constant.

Then the roots α,β for the equation $ax^{2}+bx+c$ are $\dfrac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a},\dfrac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}$

So,α= $\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}=\frac{8+\sqrt{64+16} }{8}=\frac{8+4\sqrt{5}}{8}=1+\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$

β= $\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}=\frac{8-\sqrt{64+16} }{8}=\frac{8-4\sqrt{5}}{8}=1-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$ .

So the roots are $1+\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2},1+\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$

How important are fair housing laws?

Vesna [10]

The reason why these laws are so important is that housing plays a major role in defining a person’s quality of life and is fundamental to our success. Our homes guarantee our family’s security, ensure our personal contentment, and dictate our connection to community and access to opportunities. Where a person lives affects their social, cultural, educational and many other community amenities such as: schools, transportation, employment, medical services, retail services, recreation, entertainment and much more. Housing is such a basic need that if a person does not have a safe and stable place to live, they are not going to be successful in any other area.
