Answer:
x=5 twice
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2-10x+25=0
multiply the coefficient of x^2 and the last term
1X25=25
find two numbers you can multiply to get 25 and add to get -10
-5 + (-5)=-10 the middle term
replace -10x with -5x -5x and solve the equation
x^2-5x-5x+25=0
factorise by grouping
x(x-5)-5(x-5)=0
(x-5)(x-5)=0
Either x-5=0,x=5 or x-5=0,x=5
Therefore x=5 twice.
Answer:
0.1515151515151515
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the equation: x+(x+20) = 120
Since you can't combine anything yet, its x+x+20=120
You need to get x by itself
Minus 20 from both sides
Its x+x=100 now
Combine the x's which is now 2x
Now divide 100 by 2 which is 50
x=50
---------------
Lets check:
50+(50+20)=120
Now combine the numbers in the parentheses
Its now 50+70=120
50+70=120 and 70-50=20
As you can see, he ran 50 minutes the first day and 70 minutes the second day
So its 2$ per guest since
20$/10 guests
2$/1 guest
and if she has 48$ its
48$/24 guests
So she can have 24 guests max if she spends 48$
