Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'x' = number
x³ - x² = 2x
x³- x² - 2x = 0
x(x² - x - 2) = 0
x(x - 2)(x + 1) = 0
x = -1, 0, 2
the only positive solution is the number 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x - 1
y = x - 8 ------ (i)
substitute y = 2x - 1 in equation (i)
2x - 1 = x - 8
2x = x - 8 + 1
2x = x - 7
2x - x = -7
x = -7
Substitute x value in equation (i)
y = -7 - 8
y = -15
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
-The total portion fed to the dog is 7/10 cup
- Canned-3/10
- Dry=7/10-3/10=4/10
-One week has 7 days. we multiply the dry portion per day by the number of days in a week.

Hence, Erin feed her dog 2 4/5 0r 2.8 cups of dry food
His investment will be worth $1,619.69 in 10 years.
You need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 3/4. The reciprocal is 4/3 and 4/3 multiplied by 9 = 12. So x = 12 because a number times the reciprocal is one.
