Charles' weight = Edith's weight + 20% of Edith's weight
We'll use a variable to represent Edith's weight, x.
The decimal form of 20% is 0.2.
60 = x + 0.2x
60 = 1.2x
x = 50
Edith's weight is 50kg.
Hope this helps!
The product<span> of </span>two consecutive negative integers<span> is 462. Determine the two </span>integers<span>. ... Since this is a quadratic equation, we'll </span>get<span> one side equal to zero (by subtracting 462 from each side): ... Since </span>20*20<span> = 400 we can start near there.</span>
For c go x positive 1 and go down 2
