We need 25% of the original price before it can be added. The equation for this would be
X + .25X = 406.25
The x stands for the 100% and the .25x stands for the markup of the original.
1.25x = 406.25
X= $325.00

How do you solve x^2 plus 16x plus 63=0?

Alex

$x^2+ 16x + 63=0 \\ \\a=1, \ b=16 , \ c=63 \\ \\ \Delta =b^2-4ac =16^2 -4\cdot1\cdot 63 = 256 -252 = 4 \\ \\x_{1}=\frac{-b-\Delta }{2a}=\frac{-16-\sqrt{4}}{2 }=\frac{-16-2}{2}=-\frac{-18}{2}=-9 \\ \\x_{2}=\frac{-b+\Delta }{2a}=\frac{-16+\sqrt{4}}{2 }=\frac{-16+2}{2}=-\frac{-14}{2}=-7 \\ \\ \\Answer : \ x= -7 \ \ or \ \ x= -9$
