The formula for the quadratic formula is x (c in this case) = (-b(+/-)√(b²-4ac))/2a
This is used for an equation in standard quadratic form: ax² + bx + c = 0
1.) Put it in the correct form, if not already in it.
Ex. c² + 6c + 8 = 0
2.) Identify each part of the equation:
a = 1 (the leading coefficient), b = 6 (the coefficient in front of the second variable), c = 8
3.) Plug in each variable answer
c = (-6(+/-)√(6²-4(1)(8))/2(1)
4.) Simplify
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-(4*8))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-32))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(4))/2
c = (-6(+/-)2)/2
*Here, the equation splits in two. It becomes:
c = (-6+2)/2 AND c = (-6-2)/2
*Simplify again:
c = -4/2 AND c = -8/2
c = -2 AND c = -4
The answers c = -2 and c = -4 would solve the given equation.
Hope this helps! :)

Step-by-step explanation:
8 3/5 is already in simplest form. You could write this mixed number as an improper fraction:
43/5
or as a mixed decimal number:
8.6
Answer:
(d) The functions are not inverses because for each ordered pair (x, y) for one function, there is no corresponding ordered pair (y, x) for the other function.
Step-by-step explanation:
If functions are represented by a table of ordered pairs, their inverse function is the set of ordered pairs with the x- and y-values swapped.
Here, for (x, y) = (0.75, 1038.18), the pair from the other table that begins to correspond is (y, x) = (0.75, 1057.81). These reversed pairs are not the same, so the functions are not inverses of each other.

<em>Comment on the tables</em>
Table A is for a 5-year investment; table B is for a 7.5 year investment. They cannot be inverses of each other.
