Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

9x^2 - 2x + 25 = 8x^2 + 8x

9x^2-8x^2-2x-8x+25=0

x^2-6x+25=0 factorize

(x-5)(x-5)=0

x-5=0 then x=5

In an older television set, the screen height is 0.75 times the screen width.
natima [27]
The television set has a rectangular shape. The diagonal of this rectangle along with its width and length together form a right angular triangle.
This means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem which states that:
(diagonal)^2 = (length)^2 + (width)^2

Let the width be w. We know that the length is 0.75 times the width, this means that: length = 0.75 w

Substitute in the above equation:
(20)^2 = (0.75w)^2 + (w)^2
400 = 0.5625 w^2 + w^2
400 = 1.5625 w^2
w^2 = 256
w = 16

This means that the width of the screen is 16 in.

The linear equation that represent the situation is 3b - 6 = 45.

The value of b is 17.

<h3>How to represent a linear equation?</h3>

The situation forms a linear equation. Therefore,

y = mx + b

where

  • m = slope
  • b = y-intercept

Therefore, let's model the equation linearly,

where

  • b = number of books bought

She bought the book for $3 each and receive a discount of $6. The total money spent after the discount is $45.

Therefore, the equation is as follows

3b - 6 = 45

The value of b is as follows;

3b - 6 = 45

3b = 45 + 6

3b = 51

b = 51 / 3

b = 17

Translate into an algebraic expressions: a x is increased by 50% and decreased by 30% . What is the result?
klemol [59]

Answer:

21x/20 or can be written as  x + x/20 .

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is x

step 1

x is increased by 50%

value of 50% of x = 50/100 *x = x/2

New value after this change = x + 50% increase = x + x/2 = 3x/2

Step 2 The value obtained is decreased by 30%

value of 30% newly found number is = 30% of value found in step 1

value of 30% newly found number is = 30/100 * 3x/2 = 9x/20

This value (9x/2) is subtracted from value found in step 1(3x/2) as given that  value obtained is decreased by 30%

new value found after 30% decrease = 3x/2 - 9x/20 = (3x*10 -9x)/20

new value found after 30% decrease = (30x-9x)/20 = 21x/20

Thus, the result of x is increased by 50% and decreased by 30% is 21x/20 = x + x/20
