The next three numbers are 48, 44, 176
Answer:
300
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of ratio units in 6:5 is 6+5=11, so each of those ratio units must stand for 550/11 = 50 detectives. Then the 6 ratio units of police detectives stand for 6·50 = 300 police detectives.
Answer:
x = 10 and x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation has 2 solutions because we have a square. When things are squares, we get a positive and negative solution.
(x-4)^2 - 28 = 8
Add 28 to each side
(x-4)^2 - 28+28 = 8+28
(x-4)^2 = 36
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-4)^2) = ±sqrt(36)
x-4 = ±6
Add 4 to each side
x-4+4 = 4 ±6
x = 4 ±6
x = 4+6 and x = 4-6
x = 10 and x = -2
The answer is c using substitution :)
