Answer:

$87.5  more did Alex earn in one month than Ben

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Last year Alex earned a monthly salary of $250,and Ben earned monthly salary of $180.

This year, each of them received a pay increase of 25% .

25% is written in the decimal form.

= \frac{25}{100}

= 0.25

Increase in the Alex salary this year = 0.25 × Last year salary

                                                             = 0.25 × 250

                                                             = $62.5

Total amount of Alex salary this year for one month = Last year salary + Increase in the Alex salary this year

                                                                                      = 250 + 62.5

                                                                                      = $ 312.5

Thus the salary earn by the Alex this year for a month be $312.5.

Increase in the Ben salary this year = 0.25 × Last year salary

                                                             = 0.25 × 180

                                                             = $45

Total amount of Ben salary this year for one month = Last year salary + Increase in the Ben salary this year

                                                                                      = 180 + 45

                                                                                      = $ 225

Thus the salary earn by the Alex this year for a month be $ 225 .

Amount Alex earn in one month than Ben = Total amount of Alex salary this year for one month  - Total amount of Ben salary this year for one month

Putting the values in the above

                                                                    = $ 312.5 - $225

                                                                    = $ 87.5

Therefore $87.5  more did Alex earn in one month than Ben .

10. 10. If AB bisects CAF, and m&lt;EAF = 72°,<br>then the m&lt;BAF =​
never [62]

The measure of ∠BAF is 54°.

Solution:

DF and CE are intersecting lines.

m∠EAF = 72° and AB bisects ∠CAF.

∠EAF and ∠DAC are vertically opposite angles.

Vertical angle theorem:

<em>If two lines are intersecting, then vertically opposite angles are congruent.</em>

∠DAC ≅ ∠EAF

m∠DAC = 72°

<em>Sum of the adjacent angles in a straight line = 180°</em>

m∠DAE + m∠EAF = 180°

m∠DAE + 72° = 180°

Subtract 72° from both sides.

m∠DAE = 108°

∠CAF and ∠DAE are vertically opposite angles.

⇒ m∠CAF = m∠DAE

⇒ m∠CAF = 108°

AB bisects ∠CAF means ∠CAB = ∠BAF

m∠CAB + m∠BAF = 108°

m∠BAF + m∠BAF = 108°

2 m∠BAF = 108°

Divide by 2 on both sides, we get

m∠BAF = 54°

Hence the measure of ∠BAF is 54°.

Find the number of roots for each equation.<br> 5. 5x4 + 12x3 – x2 + 3x + 5 = 0
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The number of roots for  equation 5x^4 + 12x^3 – x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0 is 4 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given function polynomial is :

P(x) : 5x^4 + 12x^3 – x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra says that a polynomial of degree n will have exactly n roots (counting multiplicity).

Now here, the degree if the polynomial is 4 (highest power of variable x).

So, according to the Fundamental Theorem, the given polynomial can have AT MOST 4 roots, counting Multiplicity.

Hence,  the number of roots for  equation 5x^4 + 12x^3 – x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0 is 4 .
