To start with, 76 is 80% of 95. (76/95=0.8)
This means that we take the difference from 100% of 95 and 80% of 95, and get a 20% decrease.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

$x= i\\\\ x = -i \\\\x=\sqrt 2\\\\x = -\sqrt 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$~~~~~~x^4 -x^2 -2=0\\\\\implies x^2 \cdot x^2-2x^2 +x^2 -2 = 0\\\\\implies x^2(x^2 -2) +(x^2 -2) =0\\\\\implies (x^2 +1)(x^2 -2) = 0\\\\ \implies x^2 +1=0~~~~~~~~\text{or}~~~~~~~~~x^2 -2 = 0\\\\ \implies x = \pm\sqrt{-1}~~~~~~~\text{or}~~~~~~~~~~ x = \pm\sqrt 2\\\\\implies x= \pm i~~~~~~~~~~~~~\text{or}~~~~~~~~~ x= \pm\sqrt 2$
