X- Alyssa's goal
$\frac{36}{x}$ *100%=45%
$\frac{36}{x}$ = $\frac{45}{100}$
36*100=45x
3600=45x /:45
x=80
Her goal was 80 bags of peanuts

If x^2+1/x^2=3 find the value of x^2/(x^2+1)^2<br> Express answer as a common fraction.<br> Thanks!!

$x^2+\dfrac1{x^2}=3\implies x^4+1=3x^2\implies x^4-3x^2+1=0$

By the quadratic formula,

$x^2=\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}2\implies x^2+1=\dfrac{5\pm\sqrt5}2$

Then

$(x^2+1)^2=\dfrac{25\pm10\sqrt5+5}4=\dfrac{15\pm5\sqrt5}2$

$\implies\dfrac{x^2}{(x^2+1)^2}=\dfrac{\frac{3\pm\sqrt5}2}{\frac{15\pm5\sqrt5}2}=\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}{15\pm5\sqrt5}$

Multiply numerator and denominator by the denominator's conjugate:

$\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}{15\pm5\sqrt5}\cdot\dfrac{15\mp5\sqrt5}{15\mp5\sqrt5}=\dfrac{45\pm15\sqrt5\mp15\sqrt5-25}{15^2-(5\sqrt5)^2}=\dfrac{20}{100}=\dfrac15$
