Because this is a second degree equation you will have 2 solutions. When you take the square root of a number you have to account for both the positive and negative roots. Since the square root of 289 is 17 then your solutions are +17 and -17.
IF you are solving for d:
isolate the D, do the opposite of PEMDAS.
-d/6 + 12 = -7
(subtract 12 from both sides)
-d/6 + 12 (-12) = -7 (-12)
-d/6 = -19
(multiply 6 to both sides)
-d/6(6) = -19(6)
-d = -19(6)
-d = -144
-d/-1 = -144/-1
d = 144

Answer:
(st)(6)= s(6) * t(6)
Step-by-step explanation:
(st)(6)
(st)(x)= s(x) * t(x) we multiply it
(st)(6)= s(6) * t(6)
Hope this helps.
The average rate is (4%*2+8%)/3=16/3%=5-1/3%
Therefore the original investment was
3664/(16/300)=300*3664/16=68700,
of which 1/3 was at 8% = 22,900
and 2/3 was at 4% = 45,800
Check:45,800*.04+22,900*.08=3664 yay!
