Answer: Choice A) 1990 to 1991
=============================================
Explanation:
Let's go through the answer choices one by one.
For choice A, we go from the year 1990 to 1991 which is a change of 1 year. The wage goes from 3.80 to 4.25 over this timespan, which is an increase of 4.25-3.80 = 0.45 dollars. Divide the change in wage (0.45 dollars) over the change in change in time (1 year) to get 0.45/1 = 0.45; this indicates that the wage increased by 0.45 dollars per year over the timespan 1990 to 1991
Now onto choice B. We have a wage increase of 3.80-3.35 = 0.45 over a course of 9 years (since 1990-1981 = 9) so 0.45/9 = 0.05 is the rate of wage growth, meaning that the wage bumps up by a nickel each year. So far choice A is the winner.
Moving onto choice C, we have a wage increase of 0.25 dollars (3.35-3.10 = 0.25) over an 1 year period (1981-1980 = 1) so the rate of change for this slice of time is 0.25/1 = 0.25 dollars per year. Choice A is still the winner.
Finally, for choice D, this is over a year as well (1980-1979 = 1) and the wage increases by 0.20 dollars (3.10-2.90 = 0.20) leading to a rate of change to be 0.20/1 = 0.20
So choice A has the largest rate of change which is the same as saying it has the largest rate of wage increase. This shows why choice A is the answer.
Answer:
A rational number is said to be closed if the subtracted values and the result obtained are rational. Hence, the equations which supports the condition are :
5.5 - 0.5 = 4
5√4 - √4 = 4√4
Step-by-step explanation:
A.)
√8 - √8 = 0 ; the added values aren't rational and the result, Zero is not rational either.
B.)
5√4 - √4 = 4√4
5(2) - 2 = 2(2)
10 - 2 = 4
All the values in the expression are rational ; hence, it supports the assertion.
C)
5.5 - 0.5 = 4 ; all the values in the expression are rational, hence, it supports the fact.
2√3 - √3 = √3 ; the values in the expression are not rational, hence, it does not meet the condition.
Therefore, only options B and C supports the assertion.
Let me add that I learned most of this from Brainly a user named fichoh :)
S equals 14. First, you need to do a distributive property for negative sign inside the parenthesis. Combine like terms, add 8 to the both sides and divide by 2.

To solve this algebraically, it is convenient to subtract 2x-7 from both sides of the equation:
3x(x -4) +5 -x -(2x -7) = 0
3x^2 -12x +5 -x -2x +7 = 0 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
3x^2 -15x +12 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
3(x -1)(x -4) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor
The values of x that make these factors zero are x=1 and x=4. These are the solutions to the equation. There are two solutions.

Once you get to the quadratic form, you can find the number of solutions without actually finding the solutions. The discriminant is ...
d = b^2 -4ac . . . . where a, b, c are the coefficients in the form ax^2+bx+c
d = (-15)^2 -4(3)(12) = 225 -144 = 81
This positive value means the equation has 2 real solutions.
