Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2 | 2 2 - 2 4

↓ - 4 4 - 4

--------------------------

2 - 2 2 0 ← remainder

Since the remainder = 0 then (x + 2) is a factor

quotient = 2x² - 2x + 2

A pair of $195 boots are discounted 40% If the boots are reduced in price by an additional 66 2/3% what will the discount price

UNO [17]

First, find the 40% discount.
40% of 195 is 78
195 x 0.40 = 78
Subtract that from 195
195 - 78 = 117
Now, find 66 2/3% of 117, since it is an additional reduction after the original discount.
2/3 = 0.667, so 66 2/3% is 66.667%
117 x 0.66667 = 78.00039
And subtract that from 117
117 - 78.00039 = 38.99961, which in dollars would be $38.99. (hundredths, etc. of a cent are usually just dropped; no rounding involved.)
The discount price would then be $38.99

Which would be the best method to use to solve the following equations? Explain your reasoning.

o-na [289]

A. square root property

$3x^2-192=0\\x^2-66=0\\x^2=66\\x= -\sqrt{66} or \sqrt{66}$

it has one value with x which is x^2 and it cn be easily solved without having to factorise, quadratic formula cant be used as it need ax^2+bx+c=0 format

B. factorising

$x^2-x-6=0\\x^2+2x-3x-6=0\\(x+2)(x-3)=0\\x+2=0 and x-3=0\\x= -2 \\x= 3$

i just felt like this was easier to factorise than the other 2 options left

C. Completing the square

$x^2-6x-7=0\\(x-3)^2=0\\x= -1\\x= 7$

same reason personal preference

D- Quadratic

$x^2-17x-7=0\\x=\frac{-(-17)+\sqrt{(-17)^2-4(1)(-7)} }{2(1)} \\x=\frac{-(-17)-\sqrt{(-17)^2-4(1)(-7)} }{2(1)}\\x=17.4\\x=-0.402$

the 17 kinda threw me off and i didnt wanna get on factorising or doing completing the square so quadratic formal

How can I find angle C?

VikaD [51]

Recall all interior angles in a triangle add up to 180°, therefore

$\bf \stackrel{A}{x+40}~~+~~\stackrel{B}{2x-5}~~+~~\stackrel{C}{3x-17}~~=~~180
\\\\\\
6x+18=180\implies 6x=162\implies x=\cfrac{162}{6}$
