Part A:
f(x) = 20x
Part B:
6 gallons
Answer:
So, the number that Lin multiplied by 7/8 MUST be less than 1. This is evident, as any positive number multiplied by a number less than 1 will decrease, doesn't matter if its a negative or positive number.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(3 ± √23 * i) /4
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we can apply the Quadratic Equation.
In an equation of form ax²+bx+c = 0, we can solve for x by applying the Quadratic Equation, or x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)
Matching up values, a is what's multiplied by x², b is what's multiplied by x, and c is the constant, so a = 2, b = -3, and c = 4
Plugging these values into our equation, we get
x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)
x = (-(-3) ± √(3²-4(2)(4)))/(2(2))
= (3 ± √(9-32))/4
= (3 ± √(-23))/4
= (3 ± √23 * i) /4
The highest common factor of 4 and 3 is 12
one minute has 60 secs
thus it will blink 60/12=5 times
