C) and E) because for X = -1 and X= 1 the functions f(x) and g(x) they have the same values.
Solve:
"<span>twice the number minus three times the reciprocal of the number is equal to 1."
3(1)
Let the number be n. Then 2n - ------- = 1
n
Mult all 3 terms by n to elim. the fractions:
2n^2 - 3 = n. Rearranging this, we get 2n^2 - n - 3 = 0.
We need to find the roots (zeros or solutions) of this quadratic equation.
Here a=2, b= -1 and c= -3. Let's find the discriminant b^2-4ac first:
disc. = (-1)^2 - 4(2)(-3) = 1 + 24 = 25.
That's good, because 25 is a perfect square.
-(-1) plus or minus 5 1 plus or minus 5
Then x = ------------------------------ = --------------------------
2(2) 4
x could be 6/4 = 3/2, or -5/4.
You must check both answers in the original equation. If the equation is true for one or the other or for both, then you have found one or more solutions.</span>
Answer:
12i + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms.
-1 + 3 = 2
5i + 7i = 12i
12i + 2 is your answer.

Answer:
0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
we know that
substitute
Remember that
so
30% is 3/10. 260 times 3/10 is 780/10, or 78. She read 78 pages. 260 - 78 is 182 pages left.
