Step-by-step explanation:
Charlie made the mistake by not getting the equation equal to zero.

Subtract 16 to both sides making it equal to 0.

Using Quadratic Formula to Solve for x.
d) You have a <u>difference of squares</u>:
49y² - 9 = (7y)² - 3²
Recall the identity,
a² - b² = (a - b) (a + b)
So,
49y² - 9 = (7y - 3) (7y + 3)
e) Pull out the common factor 3 from each term:
3x² - 3x - 90 = 3 (x² - x - 30)
Now use the <u>sum-product method</u>. Notice that we can write 30 = 5 • 6, and 5 - 6 = 1, so
3x² - 3x - 90 = 3 (x + 5) (x - 6)
f) Same as in (e), use the <u>sum-product method</u>. Notice that 42 = 7 • 6, and -7 - 6 = -13, so
x² - 13x + 42 = (x - 7) (x - 6)
First Divide: 21.75/ 30
You will get 0.725
Then, multiply 0.725 by 100%
Then your answer should be: 72.5%
