5 0

5 - 1/2 x = 5/8 x + 2
-1/2 x - 5/8 x = 2 - 5
-4/8 x - 5/8 x = -3
-9/8 x = -3
x = (-3)(-8/9)
x = 8/3
x = 2 2/3

Wiat number should be added to both sides of the equation to complete the square? X^2+x=11

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

add 1/4 to each side

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+x=11

We take the coefficient of the x term

Then divide it by 2

1/2

Then square it

(1/2) ^2 = 1/4

Add this to both sides of the equation

x^2 + x + 1/4 = 11+1/4

(x+1/2)^2 = 11 1/4

An item was sold at a loss of 20%. Had it been sold for Rs 3000more then the profit would have been 10%. What is the cost price

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Cost Price = Rs 10000

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume:

Cost of the item = x

Item was sold at a loss of 20%:

Loss = 20% of x = 0.2x

Item sold = x - 0.2x = 0.8x

Item sold at a profit of 10%:

Profit = 10% of x = 0.1x

item sold = x + 0.1x = 1.1x

Solve:

Difference = 1.1x - 0.8x = 0.3x

0.3x = Rs 3000

x = Rs 3000 ÷ 0.3

x = Rs 10000
