Answer: 88 dollars
Step-by-step explanation: We will follow the pattern of 2s, so 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 is how much she saved over the course of all 8 weeks. 2 plus 4 equals 6. 6 plus 8 equals 14. 10 plus 12 is 22. 14 plus 16 is 30. 6 plus 14 is 30 and 22 plus 36 is 58. Last of all, 58 plus 30 is 88
OK. These problems are easy if you know the quadratic formula,
and they're impossible if you don't.
Here's the quadratic formula:
When the equation is in the form of Ax² + Bx + C = 0
then x = [ -B plus or minus √(B²-4AC) ] / 2A
I'm sure that formula is in your text or your study notes,
right before these questions. You should cut it out or
copy it, and tape it inside the cover of your notebook.
Then, you'll always have it when you need it, until
you have it memorized and can rattle it off.
The first question says 3x² + 5x + 2 = 0
Is this in the form of Ax² + Bx + C = 0 ?
Yes ! A=3 B=5 C=2
so you can use the quadratic formula to solve it.
x = [ -B plus or minus √(B²-4AC) ] / 2A
= [ -5 plus or minus √(5² - 4·3·2) ] / 2·3
= [ -5 plus or minus √(25 - 24) ] / 6
= [ -5 plus or minus √1 ] / 6
x = -4 / 6 = -2/3
and
x = -6 / 6 = -1 .

The second question says
4x² + 5x - 1 = 0
Is this in the form of Ax² + Bx + C = 0 ?
Yes it is ! A=4 B=5 C= -1
so you can use the quadratic formula to solve it.
x = [ -B plus or minus √(B²-4AC) ] / 2A
Now, you take it from here.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Distance to friends's house = 1.8 miles
Time taken = 12 minutes
Since the rate is constant :
The rate Is related to distance and time :
The two variable equation which represents the equation is :
Speed = Distance / time
Convert the fraction to a decimal, then multiply by
100
.100
6200%
