Answer: 19/50
Step-by-step explanation: To write a percent as a fraction in lowest terms, first remember that a percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100. In this case, 38% can be written as the ratio 38 to 100 or 38/100. Notice however that 38/100 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor of 38 and 100 which is 2.
38 ÷ 2 = 19
100 ÷ 2 = 50
<em>Therefore, 38% can be written as the fraction 19/50 which is in lowest terms.</em>

Answer:
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try!
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+5) represents each side of a square. Since all sides of a square are equal, we know that all sides are (x+5).
Base x height = (x+5)(x+5)
Which is x^2+10x+25!
Answer:
x = - 4, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² - 2x + 3 and f(x) = 27, then equating the 2 gives
x² - 2x + 3 = 27 ( subtract 27 from both sides )
x² - 2x - 24 = 0 ← in standard form
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 24) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 2)
The factors are - 6 and + 4, since
- 6 × 4 = - 24 and - 6 + 4 = - 2, thus
(x - 6)(x + 4) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
