Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this help!
Use the quadratic formula:
x = [-b +-sq root (b^2 -4ac)] / 2a
a=1 b=2 c=-35
x = [-2 +- sq root (4 +140)] / 2
x = [-2 +- 12] / 2
x1 = (-2 +12) / 2
x1 = 5
x2 = [-2 -12] / 2
x2 = -7
5*36.95= $<span>184.75
2*42.99= $</span><span>85.98
3*38.95= $</span>116.85
1*52*0.6=$<span>31.20 (40% off) multiply by 0.6)
Add 184.75+85.98+116.85+31.20=$</span>418.78 - 20% thus: 418.78*.8= $ <span>335.024</span>
The like terms are 2 and -7
2867.5 is bigger
Even though they both show 5 numbers, the second one has only one decimal place versus 2 on the first
If you ignore the decimal, your left with
290 vs 2867
2867 is much bigger than 290 so this is the answer
