First move the constant to the other side of the equation by adding 3 to both sides...

x^2+4x=3

Now halve the linear coefficient, 4/2=2, square it, 2^2=4, and add that value to both sides...

x^2+4x+4=7, now the left side is a perfect square of the form...

(x+2)^2=7, now take the square root of both sides...

x+2=±√7,  subtract 2 from both sides...

x=-2±√7

So x=-2-√7 and -2+√7

By what percent will the fraction increase if its numerator is increased by 60% and denominator is decreased by 20% ?
seropon [69]

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with x.

x = x/1

Increase the numerator by 60% to 1.6x.

Decrease the numerator by 20% to 0.8.

The new fraction is

1.6x/0.8

Do the division.

1.6x/0.8 = 2x

The fraction increased from x to 2x. It became double of what it was. From x to 2x, the increase is x. Since x was the original number x is 100%.

The increase is 100%.
