Answer: a) x = 5 or -1 b) x = √3+2
c) x = -1/2 or -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a) (x − 2)² = 9
First step is to take the square root of both sides to eliminate the square
√ (x − 2)² = √9
x-2 = +-3
x = +3+2
x = 5 and;
x = -3+2
x = -1
x = 5 or -1
b) 3(x-2)² = 9
First we divide both sides by 3 to get;
(x-2)² = 9/3
(x-2)² = 3
Second step is to take the square root of both sides to eliminate the square
√(x-2)² = √3
x-2 = √3
x = √3+2
c) 6 = 24(x+1)²
Dividing both sides by 24, we have
6/24 = (x+1)²
1/4 = (x+1)²
Taking the square root of both sides we have
√1/4 = √(x+1)²
= +-1/2 = x+1
x = +1/2-1 = -1/2 and;
x = -1/2-1 = -3/2
x = -1/2 or -3/2
Answer:
Present value = $4,122.4
Accumulated amount = $4,742
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Amount at the Start of money flow = $1,000
Increase in amount is exponentially at the rate of 5% per year
Time = 4 years
Interest rate = 3.5% compounded continuously
Now,
Accumulated Value of the money flow = 
The present value of the money flow = 
= 
= ![1000\left [\frac{e^{0.015t}}{0.015} \right ]_0^4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1000%5Cleft%20%5B%5Cfrac%7Be%5E%7B0.015t%7D%7D%7B0.015%7D%20%5Cright%20%5D_0%5E4)
= ![1000\times\left [\frac{e^{0.015(4)}}{0.015} -\frac{e^{0.015(0)}}{0.015} \right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1000%5Ctimes%5Cleft%20%5B%5Cfrac%7Be%5E%7B0.015%284%29%7D%7D%7B0.015%7D%20-%5Cfrac%7Be%5E%7B0.015%280%29%7D%7D%7B0.015%7D%20%5Cright%5D)
= 1000 × [70.7891 - 66.6667]
= $4,122.4
Accumulated interest = 
= 
= $4,742
Answer:
B. 6x2+x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
combine like terms
3x^2+3x^2= <u>6x^2</u>
<u>x</u>
3+4=<u>7</u>
(4 hundred + 0 tens + 5 ones) + (1 ten) = 4 hundred + 1 ten + 5 ones
... = 415
