Rational number because /An irrational number has endless non-repeating digits to the right of the decimal point.
f(x) = 20x² - 18x - 25
f(-1) = 20(-1)² - 18(-1) - 25
= 20 + 18 - 25
= 13
Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
For getting the nature of solution of the quadratic equation of the form:
ax² + bx + c = 0
We need to find Discriminant which is:
Discriminant (D) = b² - 4ac
- If D < 0, there is no solution of equation.
- If D = 0, there are two equal and real solution of equation
- If D < 0, there are two real and distinct solution of equation
Here we have equation is:
2x² - 9x + 12 = 0
∴ a=2, b = -9, c = 12
⇒ D = 81 - 4 × 2 × 12 = -16 < 0
Hence, there is no solution of given equation.
To set the equation,we can first find how much price would be raised within a year:
=500×(1+7%)
=500×1.07
As the years go by the increase would accumulate,and the equation would be:
