A video store charges $10 for a rental card
plus $2.50 per video
game rented.
a. write an equation to
model the situation
b. What will be the total
cost if you decide to rent
20 video games?
c. How many video
games will you be able
to rent if you had $260?

a. 10 + 2.50x

b. 60

c. 100

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 10 + 2.50x

b. 10 + 2.50(20)

= 10 + 50

= 60

c. 260 = 10 + 2.50x

250 = 2.50x

250/2.50 = x

x = 100

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.
