Which is greater: 25% of 15 or 15% of 25? Explain your reasoning using algerbreaic representations or visual models

1 answer:

5 0

25% of 15 is the same as 15% of 25
25%=25/100
25% of 15=(25/100)15=(25*15)/100

15%=15/100
15% of 25=(15/100)25=(25*15)/100

Therefore:
25% of 15=15% of 25
because:
(25/100)15=(15/100)25
(25*15)/100=(25*15)/100
3.75=3.75

Y= x^2 -5 solve for x

dexar [7]

$Y= x^2 -5$

We need to solve for x, we need to get x alone

$Y= x^2 -5$

Lets start by removing -5

Add 5 on both sides

$y + 5= x^2 -5 + 5$

$y + 5= x^2$

Now to isolate x , we need to remove the square from x

To remove square , take square root on both sides

$+-\sqrt{y+5} = \sqrt{x^2}$

square and square root will get cancelled

$+-\sqrt{y+5} = x$

So $x = +\sqrt{y+5}$ and $x = -\sqrt{y+5}$
