Company A has a monthly budget of 2×104 dollars. Company B has a monthly budget of 5×108 dollars. How many times greater is the monthly budget for company B than for company A? A.
40 times greater

B.
250 times greater

C.
4,000 times greater

D.
25,000 times greater

c. (3,2,6) is the answer.

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
