Answer:
x = (-5 ± 2√10) / 3
Step-by-step explanation:
5 − 10x − 3x² = 0
Write in standard form:
-3x² − 10x + 5 = 0
Solve with quadratic formula:
x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a
x = [ -(-10) ± √((-10)² − 4(-3)(5)) ] / 2(-3)
x = [ 10 ± √(100 + 60) ] / -6
x = (10 ± 4√10) / -6
x = (-5 ± 2√10) / 3
15% = 0.15
234.00 x 0.15 = 35.10
234.00 - 35.10 = 198.90
The camera will cost $198.90 after the discount.
Well, seeing the information above, he used 5/8 of paint to paint the fence and table top. If he only had 1/8 left of the paint, he used 2/8 on the chair.
I found the 5/8 because I needed a common denominator. I multiplied the top and bottom by 2 to get 2/8. 3/8+2/8=5/8, and then I added 2/8 to the 5/8 that then gave me 7/8 of paint used, and 1/8 of paint left.
Hope I helped!
