Answer:
When we have a quadratic equation:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
There is something called the determinant, and this is:
D = b^2 - 4*a*c
If D < 0, then the we will have complex solutions.
In our case, we have
5*x^2 - 10*x + c = 0
Then the determinant is:
D = (-10)^2 - 4*5*c = 100 - 4*5*c
And we want this to be smaller than zero, then let's find the value of c such that the determinant is exactly zero:
D = 0 = 100 - 4*5*c
4*5*c = 100
20*c = 100
c = 100/20 = 5
As c is multiplicating the negative term in the equation, if c increases, then we will have that D < 0.
This means that c must be larger than 5 if we want to have complex solutions,
c > 5.
I can not represent this in your number line, but this would be represented with a white dot in the five, that extends infinitely to the right, something like the image below:
Answer:
y=3/4x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
The form is y=mx+b so isolate y
-4y=16-3x
y=-16/4-3x/-4
y=3/4x-4

Answer:
- $9,000 at 15%
- $4,000 at 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount borrowed at 15%. Then the amount borrowed at 10% is (13000-x). The interest at the end of the year is ...
0.15(x) + 0.10(13000 -x) = 1750
0.05x = 1750 -1300 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 1300
x = 450(20) = 9000 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 20
$9,000 was borrowed at 15%; $4,000 was borrowed at 10%.
Here is how to work the problems and write the expressions.
625 = 125 · 5 = 25 · 5 · 5 = 5 · 5 · 5 · 5 = 5⁴
