cricket20 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

the original number is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

1. let 1x be your starting number

2. therefore, 0.5 * 1x = 0.5x ( amount after you decreased it by 50%)

3. then increase: 0.5x * 1.5 = 0.75x (amount after you increased it by 50%)

4. 0.75x < 1x (this means that the original number is larger than the one you decreased and then increased)

Haley substituted the values of a, b, and c into the quadratic formula below.
Marysya12 [62]
The quadratic formula is x equals negative b plus or minus the square root of b squared minus four times a times c, all over 2a. 
Looking at the equation, we can find the values for a, b, and c
a=7
b= -10
c= -2

So then putting that back into standard form, which is ax^2+bx+c, we know Haley's function in standard form is 7x^2-10x-2

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

X = 5°

angle ACB is vertically opposite to the 60° given

ACB = 60°

40 = 7x + 5

7x = 35

X = 5
