The balance is $145 but after one makes he minimum payment of $20, there is $125 left to pay. However interest is added before the next month’s bill is generated.
Remember that percent means out of 100. 1.5% means 1.5/100 = .015
To find 1.5% of 125 we multiply (.015)(125) = 1.875 But as this is money the interest is rounded to two decimal places and so is $1.88
We add this to 125 to get next month’s balance which is 125 + 1.88 = $126.88
Your answer would be $13.50 because is 3 bags cost 6.75 and you need 6 bags then just multiply the 6.75 by 2 and you get your answer :)
9/10 - 5/10
because the denominators are the same you keep it and just subtract the numerators
=4/10
This can be reduced to 2/5
Short Answer B
Argument
A
A will give you x = +/- 5i
x^2 + 25 = 0
x^2 = - 25 Take the square root.
sqrt(x^2) = +/- sqrt(-25)
x = +/- (5)i which is a complex number.
B
Is the answer
x^2 = 25
sqrt(x)^2 = sqrt(25)
x = +/- 5
C
Can't be factored just by looking at it. You can show that C is not true just by putting 5 into the equation
f(x) = x^2 + 10x - 25
f(5) = 25 + 10*5 - 25
f(5) = 50
C is not true.
D
D can be eliminated as C was
f(x) = x^2 - 5x - 25
f(5) = -25 ( l'll let you show this is not true). 5 is not a solution because it does not make f(x) = 0
