Answer:
$91.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Jessica is paid:
- $0.45 per basket for the first 100 baskets picked;
- $0.50 per basket for all baskets over 100 picked.
1st day:
Jessica picked 65 baskets of oranges (less than 100)
Jessica is paid 
2nd day:
Jessica picked 135 baskets of oranges (35 more than 100)
Jessica is paid 
Altogether Jessica is paid
35.4% expressed as a decimal is .354
*Anchor: if you got 100% on your test, you got 1 whole test right.
Notice how I moved the decimal back two places to change 100% to 1
*An anchor is something that helps you remember what to do in the future. Use the anchor above to help you remember which way to move the decimal point when you change a percent to a decimal.
The amount invested in the first account is $9,300 while the amount invested in the second account is $8,800.
<h3>
How do we calculate the amount invested?</h3>
Let x represents the amount invested in the first account.
Therefore, we have:
Amount invested in the second account = x - 500
Interest income from first account = 3% * x = 0.03x
Interest income from second account = 5% * (x - 500) = 0.05x - 25
Total interest income = 0.03x + 0.05x - 25 = 719
Solving for x, we have:
0.08x = 719 + 25
x = 744 / 0.08
x = $9,300
Substituting for x, we have:
Amount invested in the second account = $9,300 - $500 = $8,800

Answer:
the zero of a function is the value of x which makes the final value zero
First Equation:
So let 25 - 2x equal to 0
<em>25 - 2x = 0</em>
x = 12.5
Second Equation:
Let 2x² - 11x - 6 equal to zero
<em>2x² - 11x - 6 = 0 </em>
<em>2x² - 12x + x - 6 = 0 </em><em>(Splitting the middle term)</em>
<em>2x(x - 6) + 1(x - 6) = 0</em>
<em>(2x + 1) (x - 6) = 0</em>
So we can transpose either one of the brackets below the zero
(2x + 1) = 0 or (x-6) = 0
x = -1/2 or x = 6
