Answer:
$2.35
Step-by-step explanation:
Nickels are worth 5 cents each and quarters are worth 25 cents.
7 nickels = 7 * 5 cents = 35 cents
8 quarters = 8 * 25 cents = 200 cents
Total = 200 + 35 = 235 cents
There are 100 cents per dollar, so we can find the dollar value by:
235/100 = $2.35
He would need to at least 44 to sell before breaking even.
So all you need to do if find the min of the function:
f(x)=0.04x^3-4x^2-176x
f'(x)=0.12x^2-8x-176
The only zero for this is x=84.105 <---first
Plug this into f(x) to get f(84.105)=-19300 <---second
I'm assuming you meant to write a^4 = 625.
If that is the case, then note how 625 = 25^2, and how a^4 is the same as (a^2)^2
So we go from this
a^4 = 625
to this
(a^2)^2 = 25^2
Apply the square root to both sides and you'll end up with: a^2 = 25
From here, apply the square root again to end up with the final answer: a = 5 or a = -5
As a check:
a^4 = (-5)^4 = (-5)*(-5)*(-5)*(-5) = 25*25 = 625
a^4 = (5)^4 = (5)*(5)*(5)*(5) = 25*25 = 625
Both values of 'a' work out
