Answer:

A is the cheapest deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

find unit rate; cost / quantity

20.20 / 10 = $2.02 per gallon

26.04 / 12 = $2.17 per gallon

28.24 / 24 = $2.01 per gallon

30.45 / 25 = $2.03 per gallon

Solve (x + 3)2 + (x + 3) – 2 = 0. Let u = Rewrite the equation in terms of u. (u2 + 3) + u – 2 = 0 u2 + u – 2 = 0 (u2 + 9) + u –

Verdich [7]

Answer:

The solutions of the original equation are x=-5 and x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$(x+3)^2+(x+3)-2=0$

Let

$u=(x+3)$

Rewrite the equation

$(u)^2+(u)-2=0$

Complete the square

$u^2+u=2$

$u^2+u+1/4=2+1/4$

$u^2+u+1/4=9/4$

rewrite as perfect squares

$(u+1/2)^2=9/4$

square root both sides

$(u+1/2)=\pm\frac{3}{2}$

$u=(-1/2)\pm\frac{3}{2}$

$u=(-1/2)+\frac{3}{2}=1$

$u=(-1/2)-\frac{3}{2}=-2$

the solutions are

u=-2,u=1

<em>Alternative Method</em>

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$(u)^2+(u)-2=0$

so

$a=1\\b=1\\c=-2$

substitute in the formula

$u=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4(1)(-2)}} {2(1)}$

$u=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{9}} {2}$

$u=\frac{-1\pm3} {2}$

$u=\frac{-1+3} {2}=1$

$u=\frac{-1-3} {2}=-2$

the solutions are

u=-2,u=1

<em>Find the solutions of the original equation</em>

For u=-2

$-2=(x+3)$ ----> $x=-2-3=-5$

For u=1

$1=(x+3)$ ----> $x=1-3=-2$

therefore

The solutions of the original equation are

x=-5 and x=-2

A line with a slope of 0 passes through the point (9,5). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Any line with a slope of 0 is horizontal, represented by the equation y = a number. That number is the y-value of all the points the line intersects.

We know that that the line intersects (9,5). So, take the y-value of that point and write it into the equation of y = a number. Thus, the answer is y =5.
