To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1- The problem says that you are swimming each 25 yard length 3 seconds faster than your personal best and you have to calculate the change in time (which you can call
) of your personal best after 200 yards.
2- To calculate this, you must multiply 200 yards by 3 seconds and divide by 25 yards, as following:

Therefore, the answer is: 24 seconds.
To effectively determine the correct answer, it would be helpful to write this into an algebraic expression. We let x as the number. We do as follows:
<span>Four times the square of a certain number increased by 6 times the number equals 108.
4x^2 + 6x = 108
The numbers can be either of the following since the equation generated was a quadratic equation which has two roots.
x = 4.5
x = -6 </span>
4.25 is the correct answer
It is true, the predicate is the action part of a sentence. So the object or noun would be separated by a verb.
the angles on the opposite sides of a quadrilateral touching the circumference adds up to 180 degrees
so,
(21x-2) + (38x +5) = 180
21x+38x −2+5=180
59x+3=180
59x=177
x=3
