2 answers:

7 0

Let's factor first:

x^2 - 6x + 5 = 0

Take factors of 5 that add to -6. In this case, -5 and -1.

These will be used in your binomials:

(x - 5)(x - 1) = 0

Solve each value:

x - 5 = 0
x = 5

x - 1 = 0
x = 1

The largest x is equal to 5.

Write and solve a proportion to answer the question. 3/4 is 60% of what number?

Ganezh [65]

3/4 equals .75, and 60% equals .60. Therefore, we can set up an equation. .75=.60x, where x is the number we are looking for.

Divide each side by .60 to get the variable by itself. .75/.60= 1.25.

Hope this helped!!! :)
