Answer:
5/14
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x − 4)^2
5(x - 4)(x - 4)
5(x^2 - 8x + 16)
5x^2 - 40x + 80
Did you follow?
RS + ST = RT
(3x + 1) + (2x - 2) = 64
5x - 1 = 64
5x = 65
x = 13
An approximate number, that can be calculated mentally, is by using the rule of 72: Divide 72 by the interest in % to give the number of years needed to double the money.
In this case, the approximate number of years
n= 72/4=18 years (approximately)
Precise value by compound interest formula:
2P=P*(1.04)^n
=>
1.04^n=2
take logs on both sides
nlog(1.04)=log(2)
n=log(2)/log(1.04)=17.673 years
