Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Eliminate answer 4 immediately, because (4)(3) is not 7.
Look at answer 2: 7x + 3x = 10x, which does not match the middle term 12x in the original polynomial. Eliminate answer 2.
Look at answer 1: 1x + 21x = 22x, which does not match the middle term of the original polynomial. Eliminate answer 1.
All quadratics have solutions. Let's apply the quadratic formula to 3x^2 + 12x + 7: Here a = 3, b = 12 and c = 7, so that the discriminant b²-4ac is
12²-4(3)(7), or 144 - 84, or 60. Being positive, this tells us that the given poly has two real, unequal roots:
-12 ± √60 -12 + 2√15 -12 - 2√15
x = ----------------- = ------------------- and x = --------------------
3 3 3
Normally, if c is a root, then x - c is a factor.
If we try this here, however, the resulting factors do not at all match any of your answer choices.
Don't be offended...but please ensure you have copied this problem down correctly.
So close! But instead of adding the multiplication sign after the number you need to add them before. Good job though! :)
Its $800 because to find interest u can use the formula I=PRT p is principal which is 500 times r which is rate-15/100(=15%) times 4
so the interest is 500×15/100×4=300
then u add 300 to 500 because the interest adds more money to the loan
Answer:
x-less than-or-equal-to 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 6 < 18 (less than or equal to)
4x < 12 (less than or equal to) x < 3 (less than or equal to)
I believe the answer is (5, 6.333)
