Answer:
(x - 2)(5x + 3) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
5x² - 7x - 6 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.
product = 5 × - 6 = - 30 and sum = - 7
The factors are - 10 and + 3
Use these factors to split the x- term
5x² - 10x + 3x - 6 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
5x(x - 2) + 3(x - 2) = 0 ← factor out (x - 2) from each term
(x - 2)(5x - 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Answer:
5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 2(w + l)
P = 34
l = w + 7
34 = 2 (w + w + 7)
34 = 2w + 2w + 14
34 - 14 = 4w
20 = 4w
w = 5 feet
Since l = w + 7
l = 5 + 7
l = 12 feet
13: multiply the amount by the tax rate (to make a percent a decimal move the decimal point 2 places to the left) and add the original amount and the taxed amount together. For 12 do above but then multiply the total by the tip rate and add together (basically the same as the tax again) :) I hope this helps
Answer:
A1) 125
A2) 47.5%
B) 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember 'of' in this sentence means times(*). % shows a certain number/100.
a1) 48% 'of' what number is 60?
(let unknown number be x)
48/100 *x=60
Solve the equation, and the answer is x=125
a2) what percentage 'of' 120 is 57?
(let the unknown percentage be x)
(x/100)*120=57
x=47.5%
b) 24 students= 80% of the total number of students
1%=24/80
100% of the total number of students=30
So, there are total of 30 students
6x + 1 = 2x + 10 + 79
6x + 1 = 2x + 89
4x = 88
x = 22
