Answer:x²-2x-8
X²-2x=8
X²= -2x + (-1)² = 8 + (-1)²
X²= -2x + 1 = 8 + 1
X²= -2x + 1 = 9
(X-1)² = 9
√(x-1)² = √9
X-1 = ± 3
X= 1 + 3= 4
X= 1 - 3= -2
X= 4 or X= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok.look.the question is like that
7:2 so first of all divide 7 by 2 like that 7/2 so you get 3.5 ok than add 3.5 with 2 so the answer is 5.5
we know that
A <u>geometric sequence</u> is a sequence of numbers in which the ratio between consecutive terms is constant
so
Let







therefore
The common ratio is equal to 
<u>the answer is</u>
The common ratio is 1.02
Let's say the number of days library book is late is X, and the total fee is Y.
Liability charges $0.30 dollars as a fee for being 1 day late,
For being 1 day late, fee charge is: 1* $0.30
So, for X days the charge would be: X*$0.30.
Total charge for being X days late is Y, Which means: Y= 0.30 * X.
Now We would have to check all the viable solutions in the answer to see if they satisfy the equation Y= 0.30 * X
Option
one(-3, -0.9) and two (-2.5, -0.75) Would not be a viable solution
because the value of number of days can not be negative and in option
one and two, value of days -3 and -2.5 is negative.
Option
three(4.5, 1.35) can not be correct because library charges fee for a
full day so the number for days would be a whole number. Library would
not charge for 4.5 days, they would either charge of 4 days or 5 days
because 4.5 is not an whole number.
Option four(8, 2.40) is the correct answer because it satisfies our equation;
Y= 0.30 * X
2.40= 0.30 * 8
2.40 = 2.40.
Fourth option (8, 2.40) is the only viable solution to this question.
I all of those options are true
