Answer:
711.11
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Method 1 </h3>
If 777 is decreased by 12%. the number would now be (100% - 12%) 88% of what it was originally
0.88 x 777 = 683.76
683.76 is increased by 4%. 683.76 would now be (100 + 4%) 104% of what it originally was
683.76 x 1.04 = 711.11
<h3>Method 2 </h3>
12% x 777 =
0.12 x 777 = 93.24
777 - 93.24 = 683.76
4% x 683.76 = 27.3504
683.76 + 27.3504 = 711.11
1.(first blank) 2
2.(second blank) also 2
So 2 and 2
EXPLANATION:
3 x 2 is 6.
6 x 2 is 12.

We can factor by grouping. To do so, we multiply the leading coefficient with the constant at the end. In other words, a times c (ax^2 + bx + c).
15*-4 = -60
Now we need to split the b term into two pieces that multiply to -60 and add to 4.
-6 and 10 will work.
Now group one part of b with the 15x^2 and the other part with -4.
(15x^2 + 10x) + (-6x - 4)
Now factor both terms.
5x(3x+2) - 2(3x+2)
3x+2 is one of our factors and 5x-2 is the other.
(3x+2)(5x-2)=0
Now just find the zeros.
3x+2 = 0
3x = -2
x = -2/3
And
5x-2 = 0
5x = 2
x = 2/5
So the answer is x = -2/3 and x = 2/5
Answer:
f(x)=5x^3-2x^2-90x-36=0
=x^2(5x-2)-18(5x-2)=(x^2-18)(5x-2)=0
x^2-18=0/5x-2=0
x^2=18=x=9√2
5x-2=0
x=2/5
zeros are 9√2,2/5
