x=36/0.60=60

the answer is 
</span>the original price of the pair of headphones was $60

Let x be the original price of headphones.

Since there is 40% off, the price after discount will be 60% of x. So we can set this information as:

60 \text { percent of x} =36

\frac{60}{100} \cdot x=36

x=36\cdot\frac{100}{60}

x=36\cdot\frac{10}{6}

x=6\cdot10=60

Therefore, original price of headphones is $60.

Find all real solutions of the equation. (if there is no real solution, enter no real solution.) 35x2 12x − 36
solmaris [256]
Important:  35x2 12x − 36 is not an equation; to obtain an equation, you must set <span>35x2 12x − 36 = to 0:

</span><span>35x^2 + 12x − 36 = 0.  Also, "the square of x" must be represented by "x^2," and you must insert either the + or the - sign in front of the term 12x.

I am assuming that you meant   </span>35x^2 + 12x − 36 = 0.

If that is indeed the case, then a = 35, b = 12 and c = -36

and the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or (12)^2 - 4(35)(-36) = 5184.

Since the discriminant is positive, this equation has 2 real, unequal solutions.  They are
        -12 plus or minus sqrt(5184)
x = -----------------------------------------
                         2(35)
