A= P(1 + r/n) ^nt
=8000(1+0.08/2)^8x2
=8000(1.04)^16
=$14983.85
Sqrt(1-3x)=x+3
[sqrt(1-3x)]^2=(x+3)^2
1-3x=(x+3)(x+3)
1-3x=x^2+6x+9
-3x=x^2+6x+8
0=x^2+9x+8
The answers are -1 and -8 BUT, we have to plug them back into the original equation to make sure we don't get a negative under the square root sign.
After doing this, we realize that only -1 works, so the answer is x=-1
Sorry that this took forever to answer. I was thinking of a good way to explain this, and if you need any further explanation, message me:)
Best wishes:)
Fraction of girls = 1 - 3/7 = 4/7
4/7 is equivalent to 72 girls
1/7 .. .. ............. 72 / 4 = 18
Total number of children = 7/7 = 18*7 = 126 Answer
Answer could be this 2x^2 - 7x + k/ x in a fraction with x being the only thing at the bottom btw
Given:
2002 sold 1000 paperback books and 1500 hardback books for a total of 2,500 books.
2003 sold 15% more paperback books and 5% more hardback books.
1000 x 1.15 = 1,150 paperbacks
1500 x 1.05 = 1,575 hardbacks
1150 + 1575 = 2,725
2,725 - 2,500 = 225
225 / 2,500 = 0.09
0.09 x 100% = 9% choice C
