Hello! Based on this problem, 68 is part of a whole. To solve it, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:

68/x = 85/100

Cross multiply the sections. 68 * 100 is 6,800 and 85 * x is 85x. So you get 6,800 = 85x. Now, divide each side by 85 to isolate the x. 85x/85 cancels out. 6,800/85 is 80. We can check this answer by multiplying 80 by 85%. 80 * 85% (0.85) is 68. There's our answer. 68 is 85% of 80.

Solve the equation. x2 18x 81 = 25<br> a. 14, 4<br> b. –4, –14<br> c. 14, –14<br> d. –4, 4
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The answer is the option B

-4,-14

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^{2} +bx+c=0 is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem we have

x^{2}+18x+81=25  

x^{2}+18x+56=0  

so

a=1\\b=18\\c=56

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{-18(+/-)\sqrt{18^{2}-4(1)(56)}} {2(1)}

x=\frac{-18(+/-)\sqrt{100}} {2}

x=\frac{-18(+/-)10} {2}

x1=\frac{-18+10} {2}=-4

x2=\frac{-18-10} {2}=-14

Which algebraic expression is equivalent to the expression below? 10(5x - 3/5) + 50
Kamila [148]
Hello!

You can distribute the 10

50x - 6 + 50

Combine like terms

50x = 44

Divide both sides by 50

x = 44/50

Simplify

x = 22/25 = 0.88

The answer is x = 0.88

Hope this helps!
