Answer: {5 ± 2√10, 5 - 2√10}
Step-by-step explanation: First isolate the binomial squared by adding 40 to both sides to get (x - 5)² = 40.
Next, square root both sides to get x - 5 = ± √40.
Notice that root of 40 can be broken down to 2√10.
So we have x - 5 = ± 2√10.
To get <em>x</em> by itself, add 5 to both sides to get x = 5 ± 2√10.
So our answer is just {5 ± 2√10, 5 - 2√10}.
As a matter of form, the number will always come before the
radical term in your answer to these types of problems.
In other words, we use 5 ± 2√10 instead of ± 2√10 + 5.

Answer:
24.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of the ticket in euros is ...
£222 × €1.38/(£1) = €306.36
Then the ratio of the tax to the to the total cost is ...
€100/(€306.36 +100) = 100/406.36 ≈ 24.6%
One way you could solve this is to just multiply the top and bottom out so that you get 9/81, reducing it by 9/9 to get 1/9 or option C.
Another way would be to do
since dividing numbers with exponents would be subtracting the bottom exponent from the top exponent, provided that the base number (in this case 3) is the same for both. For this method, you would get
, which is equal to 1/9 or .1 repeating, the same answer that you'd get with the first method.
