Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x2+4=3x+8

Step 1: Subtract 3x+8 from both sides.

x2+4−(3x+8)=3x+8−(3x+8)

x2−3x−4=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(x+1)(x−4)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

x+1=0 or x−4=0

x=−1 or x=4

Answer:

x=−1 or x=4

Francine Flicka found a bargain when she bought a lawn mower. She paid the store's clerk three $20 bills and received him $7.45

adoni [48]

Answer:

$48.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the marked price of the mower. Then the price with tax is ...

with tax = p + 7.3%×p = 1.073p

The amount Flicka paid is the amount tendered less the change she received, so is ...

3×$20 - 7.45 = with tax = 1.073p

To find p, we can divide by its coefficient:

(3 × $20 - 7.45)/1.073 = p ≈ $48.97

The selling price before taxes was $48.97.

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

If you check the answer, you find the amount with tax is ...

$48.97 × 1.073 ≈ $52.54481 ≈ $52.54

so the change Flicka would have received would have been $7.46, not $7.45. If the price were $48.98, then the change would have been $7.44. There is no price at which the mower can be marked that will make the total with tax come to $52.55. There is no solution to this problem.

Angie drew a number line and labeled 0 and 1. To show 5/12, into how many parts should she divide the distance from 0 to 1?

Zolol [24]

It really depends on how precise you're going to get.
You could get away with only two parts, but to be really precise, you should probably divide it into twelve (12) parts, because 5/12 means five out of twelve parts, so its would be right on the fifth subdividing marker line.
