Answer: x = 4; x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The directions specify to solve by factoring

x^2 - 9x + 20 = 0

To factor, find two numbers that add to -9 and multiply to 20

-5 and -4 work

-5 + (-4) = -9

-5 * -4 = 20

(x - 4)(x - 5) = 0

x = 4, x =5

After allowing 20% discount on the marked price with 13%
saveliy_v [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

The marked price of the article is 22,600

<u>Explanation: </u>

Given, selling price of an article SP = Rs. 18080

To calculate marked price MP, the formula used is  

\mathrm{SP}=\mathrm{MP}\left(1-\frac{D \%}{100}\right)

Discount D = 20%

Substituting the given values

SP = \mathrm{MP}\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)

18080 = \mathrm{MP}\left(1-\frac{1}{5}\right)

18080=\mathrm{MP}\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)

\mathrm{MP}=\frac{18080 \times 5}{4}

MP = Rs. 22,600

Therefore the marked price of the article is 22,600

A population of 400 beetles grows by 5% each week. How can the beetle population be determined after a number of weeks, w?
patriot [66]
*5% in decimal form is 0.05.

After one week we have:
N=400*1.05 beetles

After two weeks we have:
N=(400*1.05)*1.05 beetles

After three weeks we have:
N=((400*1.05)*1.05)*1.05 beetles

We can write this as:
Week 1:
N=400* 1.05^{1}
Week 2:
N=400* 1.05^{2}
Week 3:
N=400* 1.05^{3}

From this we can make conclusion that formula for number of beetles after w weeks is given by:
N=400* 1.05^{w}
