Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

use distributive property: x^2+2x-1=4

remove the -1 by adding 1 on both sides: x^2+2x=5

use the guadratic fromula:  ax²+bx+c=0

plug in the equation x^2+2x-5=0

a,b and c are the coefficients to plug into the formula

a=1, b=2, c=-1

Finally, you will find that x=2

Linda and Rob open an online savings account that has a 2.89% annual interest rate, compounded
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

FV= $34,222.33

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the weekly interest rate:</u>

Weekly interest rate= 0.0289/52= 0.00056

<u>To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= weekly deposit

n= 15*52= 780

A= $35

FV= {35*[(1.00056^780) - 1]} / 0.00056

FV= $34,222.33

A rectangular pyramid measures three feet by four feet at the base, and has a height of seven feet. Find its volume. A. 21 ft3 B
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

C. 28 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for the volume of a pyramid:

V = \frac{1}{3}Bh, where B = the area of the base and h = height of the pyramid

Since the base is a rectangle, we can find area using the formula:

A = l x w or A = 3 x 4 = 12 ft²

Using B = 12 and h = 7:

V = \frac{(12)(7)}{3}

V = 28 ft³

Sandra normally takes 2 hours to drive from her house to her grandparents' house driving her usual speed. However, on one partic
Rudiy27

Answer:

Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

s = \frac{d}{t}

In which s is the speed, in miles per hour, d is the distance, in miles, and t is the time, in hours.

We have that:

At speed s, she takes two hours to drive. So

s = \frac{d}{2}

d = 2s

However, on one particular trip, after 40% of the drive, she had to reduce her speed by 30 miles per hour, driving at this slower speed for the rest of the trip. This particular trip took her 228 minutes.

228 minutes is 3.8 hours. So

0.4s + 0.6(s - 30) = \frac{d}{3.8}

So

3.8(0.4s + 0.6s - 18) = d

3.8s - 68.4 = 2s

1.8s = 68.4

s = 38

Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.
