Answer:

x  \: = \:  \boxed{ \bold{  - 4  }}\:    \:    \text{or} \:   \: x \:  = \:  \boxed{ \bold{ 8}}

Step-by-step explanation:

(x \:  -  \: 2 {)}^{2}  \:  +  \: 2 \:  =  \: 38

{x}^{2}  \:  -  \: 4x \:  +  \: 4 \:  +  \: 2 \:  =  \: 38

{x}^{2}  \:  -  \: 4x \:  +  \: 6 \:  =  \: 38

{x}^{2}  \:  -  \: 4x \:  +  \: 6 \:  -  \: 38 \:  =  \: 0

{x}^{2}  \:  +  \: 4x \:  -  \: 8x \:  -  \: 32 \:  =  \: 0

x \:  \times  \: (x \:  +  \: 4) \:  -  \: 8(x \:  +  \: 4) \:  =  \: 0

(x \:  +  \: 4) \:   \times  \: (x \:  -  \: 8) \:  =  \: 0

  • When it happens that the product of the factors is the same as zero. It is divided into two possible cases.

x \:  +  \: 4 \:  =  \: 0 \\ x \:  -  \: 8 \:  =  \: 0

  • We solve the two equations:

x \:  =  \:  - 4 \\ x \:  =  \: 8

<h2>Answer: </h2>

x \:  =  \:  - 4 \\ x \:  =  \: 8

Survey: On free time 90 students like watching TV, 20 like watching TV but not reading, 80 like reading, 40 do not like watching
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

 50 %

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached,

Percentage of total students that like watching television = [(WnR)/μ]×100......... Equation 1

The number of students that like watching television and reading (WnR) = 70

The total number of students (μ) = 40+20+70+10

The total number of students (μ) = 140

Substitute these values into equation 1

Percentage of total students that like watching television = (70/140)×100

Percentage of total students that like watching television = 1/2(100)

Percentage of total students that like watching television = 50 %
