Answer:
x + (5x-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
x stands for the number of coins Nancy has
Kevin has 9 less than 5 times what Nancy has, so his part of the expression is 5x-9
To find the total number of coins they have, you have to add Nancy's number of coins x plus Kevin's number of coins 5x-9
x + (5x-9)
But you have to put parentheses around Kevin's 5x-9 so that part of the expression is calculated first, as per order of operations
X + x + x + x - 20 is equivalent to 4x - 20 because you can add the like terms, or the x's.
Answer:
Option b. Two solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find how many real number solutions the equation has we have to solve it
Given equation: -4x² + 10x + 6 = 0
taking 2 common from the equation
2(-2x² + 5x + 3) = 0
-2x² + 5x + 3 = 0
taking minus sign common from the above equation
2x² - 5x - 3 = 0
We will solve this equation by factorization in such a way that the sum of two factors is equal to -5x and the product is -6x²
2x² - 6x + x - 3 = 0
taking common above
2x(x-3) + 1(x-3) = 0
taking (x-3) common
(2x+1)(x-3) = 0
2x + 1 = 0
2x = -1
x =
x - 3 = 0; x = 3
the solutions are
Both values are real numbers, therefore correct option is b
Amount in compound interest = p(1 + r/t)^nt where p is the initial
deposit, r = rate, t = number of compunding in a period and n = period.
Here,
Amount after t years = 103(1.02)^t
i.e. 1 + r = 1.02
r = 1.02 - 1 = 0.02
Therefore, annual interest rate = 0.02 x 100 = 2%
