The answer is B. 3
It is the only value not attached to a variable, thus remaining constant.
Answer:
80% of 20 is 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be represented by x and y. The problem statement gives rise to two sets of equations.
x - y = 0.6
y/x = 0.6 . . . . . . . assuming x is the larger of the two numbers
or
x/y = 0.6 . . . . . . . assuming y has the larger magnitude
The solution of the first pair of equations is
(x, y) = (1.5, 0.9)
The solution of the first and last equations is
(x, y) = (-0.9, -1.5)
The pairs of numbers could be {0.9, 1.5} or {-1.5, -0.9}.
Answer:
The answer is <u><em>7</em></u>!
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-4) (x) = 21, x^2 - 4x = 21, x^2 - 4x - 21 = 0, (x - 7) (x + 3) = 0, x = 7 and -3; x can't be negative so the answer is 7!
x = 7 and x - 4 (other side) = 3
