$20+$25=$45 therefore the owner of the company originally had $45
A is the correct answer.......
Here is the work shown:
x^2-x-20
A is the correct answer because when using the distributive property it is the only example that results in x^2-x-20.
(x+4)(x-5)
x*x=x^2, x*-5=-5x, 4*x=4x, 4*-5=-20. Now combine all alike terms for your final answer. x^2-x-20..
please vote my answer brainliest. thanks!
Let's do this in steps, show your work!
<u>#1. We need to move all terms to one side.</u>
<u>x^2 - 7x = 0</u>
<u>#2. Then factor out the common term x.</u>
<u>x(x - 7) = 0.</u>
<u>#3. Simplify to get..</u>
<u>x = 0, 7.</u>

Answer:
the equation should be corrected to fit the data of the problem. With the corrected equation a mass of 0.5 grams remains after 150 years
Step-by-step explanation:
for the mass y( in grams)
y=23* (1/2)^(t/45), t ≥ 0.
the initial mass is at t=0 , then
y= 23 grams → should be 16 grams
half-life from the equation = 45 years → should be 30 years
the correct equation should be
y=16*(1/2)^(t/30), t ≥ 0
then after 150 years → t= 150
y=16*(1/2)^(150/30)= 16*(1/2)^5 = 16/32 = 0.5 grams
then a mass of 0.5 grams remains after 150 years
Let the number be n.
Then:
n^2 + (1/n)^2 = 82/9; find n. Find the LCD; it is 9n^2.
Mult all 3 terms by 9n^2:
82*9n^2
9n^4 + 9 = (82/9)(9n^2) => 9n^4 + 9 = ------------
9
Then 9n^4 - 82n^2 + 9 = 0
I used my graphing calculator to find that n = 3.
Let's check: is 3^2 + (1/3)^2 = 82/9?
Is 9 + 1/9 = 82/9?
Is 81 + 1 = 82? YES. So, n=3 is a solution.
