To answer this you can use a guess and check strategy.

Start with 5 minutes using it (25% lost) and 10 minutes charging (20% gained).

Try 7 minutes using it (35% lost) and 14 minutes charging (28%).

Next, 9 minutes (45%) and 18 minutes(36%).

10 minutes (50%) and 20 minutes (40%). This is the difference.

She used it for 10 minutes and charged it for 20 minutes.

Answer:  Famke uses her phone for 10 minutes and she charge it for 20 minutes .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hours Famke charges her phone.

Let y be the number of hours Famke uses her phone.

According to question, he charged it for twice the amount of time she used it.

So, it becomes

x=2y\\\\x-2y=0-----(1)

Number of points he gain while charging her phone = 2%

Number of points he loses while used her phone = 5%

Total points he lost = 10%

So, our equation would be

0.02x-0.05y=-0.10-----(2)

Put the value of x in the eq(2).

0.02\times 2y-0.05y=-0.10\\\\0.04y-0.05y=-0.10\\\\-0.01y=-0.10\\\\y=10

and x=2×10=20 minutes

Hence, Famke uses her phone for 10 minutes and she charge it for 20 minutes.

How do you solve f(x)= 4x(2)-4x-3?
slavikrds [6]
If by 4x(2) you mean 4x to the power 2 or 4x^2...it can be solved in the following way
f(x)=4x^2-4x-3
=4x^2+2x-6x-3
=2x(2x+2)-3(2x+2)
=(2x-3)(2x+2)
Therefore x=3/2 or x=-2/2=(-1)
