Answer:

8763

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of students the college had last year. Then this year's enrollment is ...

... x - 3%·x = 8500

... x(1 - 0.03) = 8500 . . . . . collect terms

... x = 8500/0.97 ≈ 8762.89 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Enrollment last year was about 8763.

_____

Of course, you know 3% = 3/100 = 0.03.

I need some help with this rational equation. It's supposed to = -1, but for some strange reason I keep getting x^2 +2x = -1.
Rasek [7]

This one is so easy that your brain refuses to accept it.
It's looking for a harder answer, but can't find it !

You're totally correct, as far you went.     x² + 2x does = -1

Now add ' 1 ' to each side:     x² + 2x + 1 = 0

Can you factor that quadratic ?
Can you mash it through the quadratic formula ?

Actually, it's the simplest possible perfect square.

                                       x² + 2x + 1  =  (x + 1)²

So the solutions of     x² + 2x + 1 = 0  are both   x = -1 .

Don't say anything.
I know it's embarrassing.
