Answer:

$48

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that it costs $60 and it is marked DOWN by 20%. Therefore, you want to find 20% of 60 which is 12. Then, you subtract $12 from the original amount to get the cost now.

Ways to find 20% of 60

  • 1/5 times 60
  • 2 times 6

Find all real solutions to the equation (x² − 6x +3)(2x² − 4x − 7) = 0.
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

x = 3 + √6 ; x = 3 - √6 ; x = \frac{2+3\sqrt{2}}{2} ;  x = \frac{2-(3)\sqrt{2}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Relation given in the question:

(x² − 6x +3)(2x² − 4x − 7) = 0

Now,

for the above relation to be true the  following condition must be followed:

Either  (x² − 6x +3) = 0 ............(1)

or

(2x² − 4x − 7) = 0 ..........(2)

now considering the equation (1)

(x² − 6x +3) = 0

the roots can be found out as:

x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

for the equation ax² + bx + c = 0

thus,

the roots are

x = \frac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4\times1\times(3)}}{2\times(1)}

or

x = \frac{6\pm\sqrt{36-12}}{2}

or

x = \frac{6+\sqrt{24}}{2} and, x = x = \frac{6-\sqrt{24}}{2}

or

x = \frac{6+2\sqrt{6}}{2} and, x = x = \frac{6-2\sqrt{6}}{2}

or

x = 3 + √6 and x = 3 - √6

similarly for (2x² − 4x − 7) = 0.

we have

the roots are

x = \frac{-(-4)\pm\sqrt{(-4)^2-4\times2\times(-7)}}{2\times(2)}

or

x = \frac{4\pm\sqrt{16+56}}{4}

or

x = \frac{4+\sqrt{72}}{4} and, x = x = \frac{4-\sqrt{72}}{4}

or

x = \frac{4+\sqrt{2^2\times3^2\times2}}{2} and, x = x = \frac{4-\sqrt{2^2\times3^2\times2}}{4}

or

x = \frac{4+(2\times3)\sqrt{2}}{2} and, x = x = \frac{4-(2\times3)\sqrt{2}}{4}

or

x = \frac{2+3\sqrt{2}}{2} and, x = \frac{2-(3)\sqrt{2}}{2}

Hence, the possible roots are

x = 3 + √6 ; x = 3 - √6 ; x = \frac{2+3\sqrt{2}}{2} ; x = \frac{2-(3)\sqrt{2}}{2}

HELP 30 POINTS!!!!!
Tamiku [17]

by pythagorean formula, the last side is √(61)

by cos rule

cos A

=  \frac{ {6}^{2}  + 61 -  {5}^{2} }{2 \times 6 \times  \sqrt{61} }  \\  =  \frac{72}{12 \sqrt{61} }   \\  =  \frac{6}{ \sqrt{61} }

A = 39.81

Given the equation 5 + x - 12 = x- 7.
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + x - 12 = x- 7 (Add the 5 and -12 to simplify)

x - 7 = x - 7        (notice its the same on both sides of equal sign. Add 7 to both                    sides)

x = x

solution is all real numbers

Part B

5 - 4 - 12 = -4 - 7

-11 = -11

5 + 0 - 12 = 0 - 7

-7 = -7

5 + 5 - 12 = 5 - 7

-2 = -2

Which answer choice shows 4 + 0.3 + 0.09 written in standard form?
puteri [66]

Solution:

<u>A few changes were made:</u>

  • 4 as 4.00.
  • 0.3 as 0.30

<u>New equation:</u>

  • 4 + 0.3 + 0.09 = 4.00 + 0.30 + 0.09

<u>Solving the equation:</u>

  • 4.00 + 0.30 + 0.09
  • => 4.39 (Refer to image for work)

Correct option is B.
