yes I know but will not give answer because you have not say that
in order to get the percentage you would just need to divide 6,840 by 38,000 (6840/38000 = .18)
this gives you .18
.18 is equivalent to 18%
John paid 18% of his earnings on entertainment.
Answers:
- C) x = plus/minus 11
- B) No real solutions
- C) Two solutions
- A) One solution
- The value <u> 18 </u> goes in the first blank. The value <u> 17 </u> goes in the second blank.
========================================================
Explanations:
- Note how (11)^2 = (11)*(11) = 121 and also (-11)^2 = (-11)*(-11) = 121. The two negatives multiply to a positive. So that's why the solution is x = plus/minus 11. The plus minus breaks down into the two equations x = 11 or x = -11.
- There are no real solutions here because the left hand side can never be negative, no matter what real number you pick for x. As mentioned in problem 1, squaring -11 leads to a positive number 121. The same idea applies here as well.
- The two solutions are x = 0 and x = -2. We set each factor equal to zero through the zero product property. Then we solve each equation for x. The x+2 = 0 leads to x = -2.
- We use the zero product property here as well. We have a repeated factor, so we're only solving one equation and that is x-3 = 0 which leads to x = 3. The only root is x = 3.
- Apply the FOIL rule on (x+1)(x+17) to end up with x^2+17x+1x+17 which simplifies fully to x^2+18x+17. The middle x coefficient is 18, while the constant term is 17.
Answer:
t = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Your numbers are .17 and .165 meters
Let me explain each digit value:
Lets start with .17
Decimals are like whole numbers where each placement has a digit value
.1 is the tenths place
.07 is the hundredths place
Lets turn to .165
.1 is the tenths place
.06 is the hundredths place
.005 is the thousandths place
When seeing which decimal is larger, go along the tenths place and move along.
So as you can see
, .17 and .165 start with .1 so you can't see which is bigger by this. Now move on to the next digit. Which is larger? .17 or .16? As you should know, 7 is bigger than 6 so that means .17 is larger
Answer: .17 meters is larger than .165 meters
