Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The goal to solving any equation is to have x = {something}. That means we need to get the x out from underneath that radical. It's a square root, so we can "undo" it by squaring. Square both sides because this is an equation. Squaring both sides gives you
Get everything on one side of the equals sign and set the quadratic equal to 0:
Throw this into the quadratic formula to get that the solutions are x = 5 and -8. We need to see if only one works, both work, or neither work in the original equation.
Does ?
and
and 5 = 5. So 5 works. Let's try -8 now:
and
so
-8 = 8? No it doesn't. So only 5 works. Your choice is the third one down.
I think it’s positive. As it gets heavier, the cost has a positive slope, or increases. I’m not absolutely sure though
This would be an increase. You would have one fraction with 46 over 24 and next to it you would have X over 100. Multiply 46 times 100 and then divide that number by 24. This would be an increase of approximately 191.6
