1. We assume, that the number 320 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task. 
<span>2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. </span>
<span>3. If 320 is 100%, so we can write it down as 320=100%. </span>
<span>4. We know, that x is 45% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=45%. </span>
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 320=100%
2) x=45%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
320/x=100%/45%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 45% of 320

320/x=100/45
<span>(320/x)*x=(100/45)*x       - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>320=2.22222222222*x       - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (2.22222222222) to get x
<span>320/2.22222222222=x </span>
<span>144=x </span>
x=144

<span>now we have: </span>
<span>45% of 320=144</span>

Well the percent sign, %, literally means out of 100. So, you are multiplying like this:
.45 • 320
=
144

Solve the equation y=2x^2-x-6 using the quadratic formula show the steps to solving
saul85 [17]

Answer:

x1 = 2 \\ x2 =  -  \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

x =  \frac{ - b +  -  \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}  \\ x =  \frac{1 +  -  \sqrt{ {( - 1)}^{2} - 4(2)( - 6) } }{2(2)}  \\ x =  \frac{1 +  -  \sqrt{1  + 48} }{4}  \\ x =  \frac{1 +  -  \sqrt{49} }{4}  \\ x =  \frac{1 +  - 7}{4}  \\  \\ x1 =  \frac{1  + 7}{4}  =  \frac{8}{4}  = 2 \\ x2 =  \frac{1 - 7}{4}  =   - \frac{6 }{4}  =  -  \frac{3}{2}

. Here is an equation 2x + 9 = -15. Write three different equations that have the same solution as 2x + 9 = -15. Show or explain
Anettt [7]

Answer:

1. x-3=-15
2.2x=-24
3.2x-3=-27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

2x+9=-15

To find three equations that have the same solution as the given equation we have to first solve the equation.

2x+9=-15
9-9=0
-15-9=-24
2x=-24
2x\div2=x
-24\div2=-12
x=-12

<u>Equation one:</u>
x-3=-15
-3+3=0
-15+3=-12
x=-12

<u>Equation two:
</u>2x=-24
2x\div2=x
-24\div2=-12
x=-12

<u>Equation three:</u>
2x-3=-27
-3+3=0
-27+3=-24
-24\div2=-12
x=-12

Hope this helps.
