Answer:

x = 3 or x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

x^2 - 4 x + 3 = 0

Subtract 3 from both sides:

x^2 - 4 x = -3

Add 4 to both sides:

x^2 - 4 x + 4 = 1

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 2)^2 = 1

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 2 = 1 or x - 2 = -1

Add 2 to both sides:

x = 3 or x - 2 = -1

Add 2 to both sides:

Answer: x = 3 or x = 1

The same bedroom furniture set costs $1,500 in both Florida and Alabama. The table gives a breakdown of the taxes someone would

vitfil [10]

Answer:

A: True

B, C and D: False

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a total sales tax for Alabama that is:

$T_A=4.225+1.375+3=8.6$

The total sales tax for Florida is:

$T_F=6.5+1+1.625=9.125$

The total sales tax is greater in Florida than in Alabama.

A. The furniture set is cheaper in Alabama, because the amount of sales tax will be lower by about $8. TRUE

The sales tax difference in this purchase can be calculated as:

$1500(T_F-T_A)=1500\left(\dfrac{9.125-8.6}{100}\right)=1500\cdot 0.00525=7.875\approx 8$

B. The furniture set is cheaper in Florida, because the amount of sales tax will be lower by about $10. FALSE (it is cheaper in Alabama)

C. The furniture set is cheaper in Alabama, because the amount of sales tax will be lower by $10. FALSE (the sale tax in Alabama is $129)

The amount of sales tax in Alabama is:

$ST_A=1500\cdot T_A=1500\cdot 0.086=129$

D. The furniture set costs the same in either state, because the amount of sales tax will be the same for the two locations. FALSE (it is not the same in both states).
