Answer:
x = 7 and x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to factor this quadratic.
To do this, start by finding all the factors of C.
7 x 1, -7 x -1
Now, we need to pick out the factors that add up to the b number, which is 8. That would be 7 and 1.
Now, we can use the numbers 7 and 1 to create two binomials.
( x + 7 ) ( x + 1 ) = 0
The last thing we need to do is to set those binomials to 0 and solve each of them individually.
x + 7 = 0
x = - 7
Solving the first binomial gives us our first solution, -7.
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
Solving the second one gives us our second solution, -1.
The solutions are -7 and -1.
Let the reduced price be x
If he paid for 6 rounds, he paid 1 round at full price of $19 and 5 rounds at reduced price:
19 + 5x = 59
5x = 59 - 19
5x = 40
x = 40 ÷ 5
x = 8
The reduced price is at $8 per round.
If you meant MG=33
X= 6.8571428571
If you need further help on how they got the answer, this equation will take more time, but it will also help you understand these types of problems. Part÷Whole=Percent÷100
Part= X because it is what you are trying to find.
Whole=250 because it is what you are taking the percentage of.
Percent=80
Now you have:
X÷250=80÷100
Set this up in fraction form and cross multiply.
You get:
100x=250×80
250×80=20,000
100x=20,000
X=200
