a = 0.72727272 100a = 72.72727272 100a - a =72.72727272-0.72727272 = 72 = 99a  a =72/99 so 0.72727272 = 72/99 0.72727272 refers to 0.72 where the 72 is recurring.

f'(x)=9x²​+4x, and f''(x)=18x+4 (derivatives) 

f'(x)=0 at x=0 or x=-4/9

when x=0 f''(x)>0 therefore a minimum value, when x=-4/9 f''(x)<0 and thus a maximum value. 

This is solving a quadratic equation. There are two ways we can solve this. Using the quadratic equation or completing the square. 1. Quadratic equation-The equation is in the form ax^2 + bx + c. Where a=...

Start by rearranging the inequality - make sure the sign next to the x² term is positive to make it easier: 

2x² -5x - 12< 0

Next step is to factorise this quadratic...
