Let the price he paid equal "x".

EQUATION:

x + 0.20x = 4680

1.2x = 4680

Solve for x.
Daniel [21]

Answer:

x=-\frac{9}{4} \\ or \:\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (x + 1/4)+1=5\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1=5\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1-1=5-1\\\\Simplify\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)=4\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-2\\\frac{-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)}{-2}=\frac{4}{-2}\\\\Simplify\\x+\frac{1}{4}=-2\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{1}{4}\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}=-2-\frac{1}{4}\\\\Simplify\\x=-\frac{9}{4}\\\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}

F(x) = -x² + 7x - 12<br> One factor of this is (x - 4). Find the other factor.
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

(3-x) is the other factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is :

F(x)=-x^{2}+7x-12

One of the factor is (x-4)

We need to find the other factor.

It can be solved as follows :

F(x)=-x^{2}+4x+3x-12\\\\=(-x+3)(x-4)

So, the other factor is (3-x).
