Do the 11% off first.
11% of 52$ is 46.38$, then you take $40 off and your total is only $6.38
if you do -40$ first then you have $12 left and 11% off that is $10.68.
A
(X-7)(x-4) -> x^2 -11x + 28
Multiply that by the 2 and you get the original equation!
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a ratio problem
15/25 = 36/x
15x = 900
x = 60
X^2 - 7x + 12 = 0
x^2 - 4x - 3x + 12 = 0
x (x - 4) -3 ( x - 4) = 0
(x - 4) (x - 3) = 0
x = 3 , 4
Check the answer by plugging in 3 and 4 for x, if the equation equals zero then you have your answer.
