Val's whole-house central air conditioner uses 3,500 watts when running. Val runs the AC 5 hours per summer day. Electricity costs (10 cents)/(1 kilowatt-hour). How much does Val's AC cost to run for a summer month of 30 days?

$52.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Val's air conditioner uses 3,500 watts when running, and that Val uses it for 5 hours during summer days, spending 10 cents per kilowatt hour, determining how much money Val will spend during a 30-day summer must be done the following calculation:

3,500 watts = 3.5 kilowatts

3.5 kilowatts per hour = 35 cents

35 cents x 5 hours = 175 cents per day

175 cents per day x 30 days = 5250 cents per month

5250/100 = X

52.5 = X

Thus, during 30 days of summer, Val will spend $ 52.50 on electricity from the use of his air conditionier.

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.
