Answer:
u = 156.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
31.25 = u/5
Step 2: Solve for <em>u</em>
- Multiply both sides by 5: 156.25 = u
- Rewrite: u = 156.25
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in u to verify it's a solution.</em>
31.25 = 156.25/5
31.25 = 31.25
A. square root property

it has one value with x which is x^2 and it cn be easily solved without having to factorise, quadratic formula cant be used as it need ax^2+bx+c=0 format
B. factorising

i just felt like this was easier to factorise than the other 2 options left
C. Completing the square

same reason personal preference
D- Quadratic

the 17 kinda threw me off and i didnt wanna get on factorising or doing completing the square so quadratic formal
