Answer:
AGREE!
Step-by-step explanation:
"I agree with Lin, she used the correct formula to get this answer"
When 36 people are seated the room is 2/3 full.
So for 1/3 , 18 people are needed
It will be 3/3 full if 54 people are present
So there can be 54 people in total
Now for the room to be 1/2 full , people will be 1/2 x 54 = 27 people
Yes, your answer is correct
4.5 is the answer
Divide 49 from both sides
220.5 / 49 = 4.5
Here is one way to solve for x.
Step 1) 2x^2-7=9
Step 2) 2x^2-7+7=9+7
Step 3) 2x^2=16
Step 4) (2x^2)/2=16/2
Step 5) x^2=8
Step 6) sqrt(x^2)=sqrt(8)
Step 7) |x|=sqrt(8)
Step 8) x=sqrt(8) or x=-sqrt(8)
-------------------------------------
Below are explanations/reasons to each of the steps above.
Step 1) Original equation
Step 2) Add 7 to both sides
Step 3) Combine like terms
Step 4) Divide both sides by 2
Step 5) Simplify
Step 6) Apply the square root to both sides. The notation "sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"
Step 7) Use the rule that sqrt(x^2) = |x| for all real numbers x
Step 8) Use the rule that if |x| = k then x = k or x = -k for some fixed number k.
-------------------------------------
The two solutions are
x = sqrt(8) or x = -sqrt(8)
