Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
6x² - 2x + 36 = 5x² + 10x ( subtract 5x² + 10x from both sides )
x² - 12x + 36 = 0 ← in standard form
This is a perfect square of the form
(x - a)² = x² - 2ax + a²
36 = 6² ⇒ a = 6 and 2ax = (2 × 6)x = 12x, hence
(x - 6)² = 0
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
Collect like terms
(2x-x) + (9+3)
Simplify
x+12
Answer:
0 = 9x - 9x
0 = 0
This means it has infinite number of solutions.

I'm pretty sure $39.31 was the original sales cost because if you use proportions to find out what is 7.2% of 42.35 ( what you get you you subtract 45 by 2.65). Your equation would be x/42.35 = 7.2/100. 42.35 is the whole because tax is adding money onto your original cost, making that the part. When you cross multiply you get 100x = 304.92. Then you divide by 100 on both sides to isolate the variable, to get x = 3.04. But you don't stop there. Since 3.04 is only the 7.2%, you have to subtract that by 42. 35 to get a sum of 39. 31 as your total.
