Answer:
x = -3±sqrt( 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 3)^2-5=0
Add 5 to each side
(x + 3)^2-5+5=0+5
(x + 3)^2 = 5
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x + 3)^2 )=±sqrt( 5)
x+3 = ±sqrt( 5)
Subtract 3 from each side
x+3-3 = -3±sqrt( 5)
Check the picture below.
20% of 250 is 50
try A,C and E because A) has more students than any other ones C) if I goes up in twos and E) same as C
$10,880
15% = 15 ÷ 100 = 0.15
So 15% of 12800 = 0.15 x 12800 = 1920
Therefore, 12800 - 1920 = 10880
OR
12800 x (1 - 0.15) = 10880
