Complete the square to the problem X^2+6x-16=0

marishachu [46]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\qquad(*)\\\\-------------------------------\\\\x^2+6x-16=0\qquad\text{add 16 to both sides}\\\\x^2+6x=16\\\\x^2+2(x)(3)=16\qquad\text{add}\ 3^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\\underbrace{x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2}_{(*)}=16+3^2\\\\(x+3)^2=16+9\\\\(x+3)^2=25\Rightarrow x+3=\pm\sqrt{25}\\\\x+3=-5\ \vee\ x+3=5\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\\boxed{x=-8\ \vee\ x=2}$

How much should you put in an investment paying a simple interest rate of 5% if you needed $4000 in eighteen mont

Eddi Din [679]

now, there are 12 months in a year, so 18 months is really 18/12 of a year, thus

$~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P(1+rt)\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\dotfill & \$4000\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\\ r=rate\to 5\%\to \frac{5}{100}\dotfill &0.05\\ t=years\to \frac{18}{12}\dotfill &\frac{3}{2} \end{cases} \\\\\\ 4000=P[1+(0.05)(\frac{3}{2})]\implies 4000=P(1.075) \\\\\\ \cfrac{4000}{1.075}=P\implies 3720.93\approx P$
