Answer:

-20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Purchase price = Rs1000

Price sold = 4/5 of the purchase price

Price sold = 4/5 * 1000 = Rs. 800

Profit Percentage :

(price sold - purchase price) / purchase price * 100%

(800 - 1000) / 1000 * 100%

(-200 / 1000) * 100%

-0.2 * 100%

-20%

The polynomial of degree 3, P(x), has a root of multiplicity 2 at x = 3 and a root of multiplicity 1 at x = -2. The y-intercept

Maru [420]

Answer:

$p(x) = - 0.7(x - 3)^{2} (x + 2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the polynomial, has a root of multiplicity 2 at x = 3 and a root of multiplicity 1 at x = -2.

This means the factored form of the polynomial will be.

$p(x) = a(x - 3)^{2} (x + 2)$

Also, it was given that, the y-intercept is y=-12.6.

This implies that:

$- 12.6= a(0 - 3)^{2} (0 + 2)$

$- 12.6= a(- 3)^{2} (2)$

$- 12.6= 18a$

Divide both sides by 18;

$a = \frac{ - 12.6}{18}$

$a= - 0.7$

Therefore the polynomial is

$p(x) = - 0.7(x - 3)^{2} (x + 2)$

Answer:

The value of x =10°

Step-by-step explanation:

Check attachment for solution.

Triangle theorem: the sum of the opposite interior angle is equal to the exterior angle.

<JKL+<LJK=<KLM

2x+14+3x+15=7x+9

Collect like terms

2x+3x-7x=9-14-15

-2x=-20

Divide both side by -2

x=10°

What is the The range of y = square root X-5 – 1

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

[-1, infinity)

Step-by-step explanation:

I must assume that you meant y = √(x - 5) - 1.

The range of the square root function is [0, infinity.

If 1 is subtracted from the square root function, the range of the resulting function is [-1, infinity).
