Jamal needs to contribute $4,050 towards his first year of college. If he has 1 year to save and $1,000 in his savings account already, how much money does he need to save each month to his expenses covered?

Jamal needs to save $254.17 each month to cover his expenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 12 months in a year, and Jamal already has $1,000 towards college. Jamal still needs to save $3,050 more dollars because: 4,050 - 1,000 = 3,050. Next, we take how much he has yet to pay ($3,050) divided by how many months in 1 year (12), and that gives us 254.17 per month.

step-by-step explanation:

divide, then simplify your answer.

1. make -15.66 ÷   5.8 a fraction. then divide.

2. simplify.  

3. final answer.  

x^2 + 81

we can factor this using difference of square binomials.

rewrite the equation:

x^2 - (-81)

factor:

(a^2 - b^2) = (√a^2 + √b^2)(√a^2 - √b^2)

(x^2 - (-81) = (x + √-81)(x - √-81)

we can remove the - from under the radical by multiplying it by i.

(x^2 - (-81) = (x + i√81)(x - i√81)

(x^2 - (-81) = (x + 9i)(x - 9i)

we can check our answer by using foil:

x^2 - 9ix + 9ix - 81i^2

x^2 - 81^2

i^2 = -1

x^2 + 81
