For c to be positive, and for b to be negative, m must be negative and n must be negative.
X^2 - bx + c = (x - m)(x - n).
c is the product of m and n. If both m and n are positive, c would be positive. However b is the sum of m and n, therefore to make b negative, both m and n must be negative to ensure that the product of m and n is positive
Answer:
$11,728
Step-by-step explanation:
Twice a year, for 4 years is 8 times
516×8 = 4128
Yearly for 4 years is 4 times
700×4 = 2800
Every month for 4 years is 48 times
100×48 = 4800
Minimum expenditure:
4128 + 2800 + 4800 = $11,728
They traveled 292 miles on day two.
Known: On the first day they traveled 365 and on the second they traveled 20% less.
Solution:
If they traveled 20% less on the second day, that means they traveled 80% of the distance they traveled the first day.
365 miles * .8 = 292.
You could also solve this as:
20% of 365 is 73 miles
365 * .2 = 73.
So they traveled 73 less miles on the second day.
365 miles on the first day - 73 miles less on the second day = 292 miles.

The owner is most likely cheating because it is usually a 50|50 chance of winning. But, you usually only get 50, and win a bit less and loose more. So, he is most likely cheating. (Hope this helped :D)
The potential energy, E, of the penny is given by E=mgh. The energy, Q, required to raise the temperature of an object by an amount ΔT is given by Q=mcΔT. We can equate these two to get the result but we must use proper units and include the 60%:
(0.6)mgh=mcΔT
We see we can divide out the mass from each side
0.6gh=cΔT, then 0.6gh/c=ΔT
(0.6)9.81(m/s²)50m/385(J/kg°C) = 0.7644°C
since this is the change in temperature and it started at 25°C we get
T=25.7644°C
As you can see the result does not depend on mass. The more massive the copper object the more potential energy it will have to contribute to the heat energy, but the more stuff there will be to heat up, and the effect is that the mass cancels.
