Answer:

3 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to factor it to be able to find the solution.

x^2-9=0

(x+3)(x-3)=0  You now need to find 'each' zero, because if one parenthesis equals 0, then you are multiplying the rest of the equation by 0 which will equal 0.

x+3=0  Subtract three

x= -3    

x-3=0  Add three

x= 3

x^2-9 will equal 0 when x is either +3 or -3

Answer:

x=3  x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-9=0

We know this is the difference of squares

a^2 - b^2 = (a-b) (a+b)

(x-3)(x+3) =0

Using the zero product property

x-3 =0  x+3 =0

x=3  x=-3

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The bigger avocado will be a better deal if the ratio of the sizes of the bigger one to the smaller one is less than the ratio of the prices of the bigger one to the smaller one.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two sizea of avocados are being sold, since the regular size is being sold for $0.84 each, let the price for the bigger avocado be $x.

Then note the following:

1. How bigger than the smaller avocado is the bigger one?

This would determine if the price for the bigger one is a bargain, or a mistake.

If for instance, the bigger avocado is double the size of the smaller one, then for any price, $x less that $1.68 (twice of $0.84), it is a bargain.

The bigger avocado will be a better deal if the ratio of the sizes bigger one to the smaller one is less than the ratio of the prices of the bigger one to the smaller one.
