Answer:
The number of seashells he have in his collection all together is <u>140</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches.
Stanley has 49 seashells from Florida.
Now, to find the number of seashells of his collection altogether.
Let the number of seashells all together be 
Percentage of seashells found on Florida beaches = 35%.
Number of seashells found on Florida beaches = 49.
Now, to get the number of seashells altogether we put an equation:
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Dividing both sides by 0.35 we get:
⇒ 
Therefore, the number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.
Answer:
(x + 1)² = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
-2x = x² - 6
We'll start by rearranging it to solve for zero:
x² + 2x - 6 = 0
The first term is already a perfect square so that's fine. Normally, if that term had a non-square coefficient, you would need to multiply all terms a value that would change that constant to a perfect square.
Because it's already square (1), we can simply move to the next step, separating the -6 into a value that can be doubled to give us the 2, the coefficient of the second term. That value will of course be 1, giving us:
x² + 2x + 1 - 1 - 6 = 0
Now can group our perfect square on the left and our constants on the right:
x² + 2x + 1 - 7= 0
x² + 2x + 1 = 7
(x + 1)² = 7
To check our answer, we can solve for x:
x + 1 = ± √7
x = -1 ± √7
x ≈ 1.65, -3.65
Let's try one of those in the original equation:
-2x = x² - 6
-2(1.65) = 1.65² - 6
- 3.3 = 2.72 - 6
-3.3 = -3.28
Good. Given our rounding that difference of 2/100 is acceptable, so the answer is correct.
