$709.21
$361.36 for week one + $347.85 for week two = $709.21 total for both weeks
No. A polynomial equation in one variablel ooks like P(x) = Q(x), where P and Q are polynomials.
Consider polynomial equations x^2 = 3 and x^2 = 1.
Obviously they have real solutions.
Subtract the two polynomial equations:
(x^2 - x^2) = (3 - 1)
0 = 2...
We get the polynomial equation 0 = 2. We call this a polynomial equation because single constants are also by definition polynomials.
Obviously 0 = 2 has no real solution.
The company picnic cost $ 1300 for 80 employees
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that cost of a company picnic varies directly as the number of employees attending the picnic
Let "c" be the company picnic cost
Let "n" be the number of employees attending the picnic
Therefore,
Where "k" is the constant of proportionality
c = kn ---------- eqn 1
<em><u>Given that company picnic costs $487.50 for 30 employees</u></em>
Therefore substitute c = 487.50 and n = 30
<em><u>How much does a company picnic cost for 80 employees?</u></em>
Substitute n = 80 and k = 16.25 in eqn 1
Thus $ 1300 is the cost for 80 employees
Before jumping into doing this problem, it is important to look at all the information's that have been made available in the question. Based on those given conditions the answer to the problem can be easily deduced.
Let us assume the number of friends Sumalee has = x
Then
2x + 8 = 40
2x = 40 -8
2x = 32
x = 32/2
x = 16
So Sumalee has 16 friends. There are numerous ways to get to the answer that is required to be found. This is the easiest and the shortest method. Hope i helped you.
Answer:
4x^3-16x^2-28x+40
It will take a while to describe how i got this, but i checked the zeroes are ok.
