I borrowed $50 from mom and $50 dollars from dad to buy a bag costing $97. After the purchase, i had $3 dollars left. I returned $1 to dad and $1 to mom, and reserved $1 for myself. I now owe 49+49 = $98 plus the $1 I reserved for myself., which is $99. Where is the missing $1?

So you are trying to fool me s i don't know i think the one dollar is used already

Step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is 5

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
