This is a continuous compounded growth:

P = A . eⁿˣ, where A is the original value, P, the yielded value after a growth of 
"x" during a time = n ( n = time = 3 hours : given)

200 = 120(e)³ˣ

200/120 = (e)³ˣ

5/3 = (e)³ˣ

ln(5/3) = ln[(e)³ˣ

0.5108 = 3x.ln(e) (ln(e) = 1)

x = 0.5108/3 = 0.17
 so the HOURLY growth rate = 0.17

Solve by factoring : x^2-5x-36=0
il63 [147K]

Answer:

-9 and +4 are the factors

Step-by-step explanation:

-9 times +4 is -36 and if you add +4 to -9, you get -5.

After this your function will look like this:

x^2-9x+4x-36

and then:

x(x-9)+4(x-9)

so the answer is:

(x-9)(x+4)
