If the sol'ns are -9 and 9, then we can use this to form our eq'n:
(x - 9)(x + 9) = 0
x^2 - 81 = 0
so...
x^2 + z - 103 = x^2 -81
z - 103 = -81
z = -81 + 103
z = 22
Answer:
580
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's translate this word for word.
87 is 15% of what number
87 = 15% times x
87=.15 times x

Divide both sides by .15

Cancel out the common factor of .15 on the right; that is .15/.15=1.

580 is the number
Answer: i think its star because it sounds right and well i tryed it before and you should to.
Let's take the 2 numbers are a and b.
a + b =14
if a > b
a - 3b = -2
Subtract both numbers
4b = 16
b = 4
lesser number is 4.
Answer:
First question --> C) 8.5h
Second question --> D) 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First question
Terry earns $10 per hour
Jill earns 20% less which is $2 less
Jill earns $8 per hour
Jerry earns $0.50 more per hour than Jill
Jerry earns $8.50 per hour
Second question
x = 2
y = 4
(2x + 3y) / 4 - 2 = ?
Use PEMDAS
so Parentheses first, then divide, then subtract
So.... (2x + 3y) = (2*2 + 3*4) = (4 + 12) = 16
Then divide
16/4 = 4
Then subtract
4 - 2 = 2
