Maya is cleaning out her closet and is shocked when she realizes that she has 55 shirts. She decides to donate 40% of them. How many more shirts does she have for her ?
Answer:
The number of T-shirt that Maya will have after donating 40% is 22 shirts
Explanation:
Given:( as per the above data provided)
Total number of T-shirts = 55
Percentage of T-shirts she wish to donate = 40%
To find:
Remaining number of T-shirt left after donating?
Formula to be used:
Remaining T shirt = (Total number of T-shirt /100) X The Percentage of T-shirt she wish to donate
Steps:
Substituting all the above provided values in the formula we get,
= (55/100)*40
= 22 shirts.
Thus the number of T-shirts left with her is 22.
Sqrt(1-3x)=x+3
[sqrt(1-3x)]^2=(x+3)^2
1-3x=(x+3)(x+3)
1-3x=x^2+6x+9
-3x=x^2+6x+8
0=x^2+9x+8
The answers are -1 and -8 BUT, we have to plug them back into the original equation to make sure we don't get a negative under the square root sign.
After doing this, we realize that only -1 works, so the answer is x=-1
Sorry that this took forever to answer. I was thinking of a good way to explain this, and if you need any further explanation, message me:)
Best wishes:)
When you divide something by 10, yo move the decimal place one place to the left so exg
20.0/10=2.0
so divide by 1000 means move the decimal place 3 places to the left so if you had 20,000.0/1000=20.0 so
6.82/1000=0.00682
