Answer:
(x + 9)(x - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 + x - 72
= x^2 - 8x + 9x - 72
= (x^2 - 8x) + (9x - 72)
= x(x - 8) + 9(x - 8)
= (x + 9)(x - 8)
<u>Solution-</u>
Let's assume, the rate of interest of $8000 is x%,
then the rate of interest of $17000 is (x+0.3x) =1.3x%
Interest earned by $8000,
Interest earned by $17,000,
According to the question,
∴ Rate of interest of $8000 is 1.96% and rate of interest of $17000 is (1.3×1.96) =2.55%
Im doing something similar to this you wanna help each other out?
It's a simultaneous equation:
Steps:
1.Number the equations..
a+b=77 -1
a-b=13 -2
2. Choose what variable you want to use. In this case I would use the "b". Since the signs in front of the "b's" are different, add the two equations together
a + b = 77
+ + +
a (-b) = 13
Which gives;
2a = 90
Then solve to find a:
2a=90
a= 90/2
a=45
3.Then plug the "a" value into any of the original equations to find the "b" value. I would use equation 1 since the all the variables are positive.
a + b = 77
(45) + b = 77
b=77-45
b=32
4.Solution
a=45
b=32
Answer:
A= X,B
