<h3>
Answer: 10%</h3>
Work Shown:
2/20 = 0.10 = 10%
Note that 10% of 20 = 0.10*20 = 2 dollars is the sales tax to help confirm the answer.
<u>Question:</u>
Find the number of real number solutions for the equation. x^2 + 5x + 7 = 0
<u>Answer:</u>
The number of real solutions for the equation 
is zero
<u>Solution:</u>
For a Quadratic Equation of form : 
---- eqn 1
The solution is 
Now , the given Quadratic Equation is ---- eqn 2
On comparing Equation (1) and Equation(2), we get
a = 1 , b = 5 and c = 7
In , 
is called the discriminant of the quadratic equation
Its value determines the nature of roots
Now, here are the rules with discriminants:
1) D > 0; there are 2 real solutions in the equation
2) D = 0; there is 1 real solution in the equation
3) D < 0; there are no real solutions in the equation
Now let solve for given equation
Since -3 is less than 0, this means that there are 0 real solutions in this equation.
2 consecutive odd integers...x and x + 2
x + (x + 2) = 36
2x + 2 = 36 <===
We can solve these equations by using substitution method where you substitute one equation to the other and solve for the value of the other variable. We do as follows:
y = 2x^2
y = –3x −1
2x^2 = –3x −1
2x^2 +3x +1 = 0
x1= -0.5
x2 = -1
y1 = 0.5
y2 = 2
Answer:
all real numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the solution to the first inequality:
3(2x +1) > 21 . . . . . . given
6x +3 > 21 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
6x > 18 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 3
x > 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6
This is all numbers to the right of 3 on the number line.
__
The solution to the second inequality is ...
4x +3 < 3x + 7 . . . . given
x < 4 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3x+3
This is all numbers to the left of 4 on the number line.
__
The conjunction in the system of inequalities is "or", so we are looking for values of x that will satisfy at least one of the conditions. <em>Any value of x</em> will satisfy one or the other or both of these inequalities. The solution is all real numbers.
