Answer:
0.448 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
d = -16t² -4t + 412
find t when d = 407
substituting d = 407 into the equation:
407 = -16t² -4t + 412 (subtract 407 from both sides)
-16t² -4t + 412 - 407 = 0
-16t² -4t + 5 = 0 (multiply both sides by -1)
16t² + 4t - 5 = 0
solving using your method of choice (i.e completing the square or using the quadratic equation), you will end up with
t = (-1/8) (1 + √21)= -0.70 seconds (not possible because time cannot be negative)
or
t = (-1/8) (1 -√21) = 0.448 seconds (answer)
1 rational solution
4x² + 12x + 9 = 0
(2x+3)²=0
2x + 3 =0
2x +3 -3 = 0-3
2x = -3
2x/x = -3/2
x = -3/2
Answer:
35.35%
Step-by-step explanation:
If there were no deductibles, the expected claim payment would be:
If the collision insurance claim is under $2,000, then the insurer would not pay anything, but if X > $2,000, then the insurer would pay X - $2,000. The new expected value is:
The percentage reduction on the claim payment is:
There was a 35.35% reduction.
