Martin had M dollars initially. First, Martin spent 1/3 of his money. Then Martin spent 3/4 of what was left. Finally, Martin sp
Degger [83]

Answer:

First Method

First, he had M some unknown amount 

Then, he had 2/3 M since he spent 1/3 M

Then, he spent 3/4 of the (2/3 M) so he had 1/4 of the ( 2/3M) 

Then, he spent what was left $20 so $20 = 1/4 ( 2/3 M) now solve for M

You can check by doing each step and figuring how much was spent and how much was left.

Second Method

let us consider the left amount be Y and total now of M dollar be X

Y = amount of money Nartin has left 

Y = X - ( 1/3 ) ( X ) - ( 3/4 ) ( X - 1/3 X ) - 20 

Y = X - 1/3 X - 3/4 X + 3/12 X - 20 

Y = X - 4/12 X - 9/12 X + 3/12 X - 20 

Y = X - 10/12 X - 20 

Y = X - 5/6 X - 20 

Y = ( 1 / 6 ) ( X ) - 20 

Hope this helps.

Solve for x by factorising.<br>3x²+4x= 4​
Ivan

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2+4x-4=0 (we move 4 to the other side to factor)

(3x-2)(x+2)

^think of 2 numbers that when you multiply it will be -4 and when you multiply one of it to 3x and add to the other it will be 4x.

Recheck:

-2(2)= -4 (correct)

-2x+6x=4x (correct)
