Step one: divide both sides by -2.3 to get X by itself: X=-.2. :)
Divide the amount donated by total sales then multiply by 100.
350 / 8750 = 0.04
0.04 x 100 = 4%
X^2/(x- 9 = 81/(x - 9)
This is the equation for which you want the solution.
Multiplying both sides of the equation by (x - 9) we get
x^2(x - 9)/(x - 9) = 81(x - 9)/(x - 9)
So the (x - 9) goes out from both the denominator and the numerator and then the simplified equation becomes
x^2 = 81
x ^2 = (9)^2
x = 9
So the value of the unknown variable x comes out to be 9.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The question with some background info added:</em></u>
- <em>When measuring the dimensions of a room a carpenter uses a tape measure that only displays a number of feet, L, on the metal tape. (The carpenter's tape measure does not display inches) </em>
- <em>Write an expression to determine the length of the room in units of 3 feet. </em>
<h3>Solution</h3>
Let the length of the room be L feet measured by the carpenter
<u>Then</u>
- L/3 = 1/3L would be measure of the length in units of 3 feet
