Answer:

{ - 2, 10 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 8x = 20

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 4)x + 16 = 20 + 16, that is

(x - 4)² = 36 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 4 = ± \sqrt{36} = ± 6 ( add 4 to both sides )

x = 4 ± 6

Thus

x = 4 - 6 = - 2

x = 4 + 6 = 10

The aquarium has 3 more yellow fish than green fish. 60 percent of the fish are yellow. How many green fish are in the aquarium?
cupoosta [38]

The aquarium has 3 more yellow fish than green fish.

60% of the fish are yellow.

To find:

How many green fish are in the aquarium?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be x number of fish in the aquarium.

60% of the fish are yellow.

So there are 60x/100 = 3x/5 yellow fish.

Then (100 - 60)% = 40% fish are green.

So there are 40x/100 = 2x/5 green fish.

Given that, there are 3 more yellow fish than green fish

⇒ 3x/5 = 2x/5 + 3

⇒ 3x/5 = (2x + 15)/5

⇒ 3x = 2x + 15

⇒ 3x - 2x = 15

⇒ x = 15

Now, 2x/5 = 2/5 × 15 = 2 × 4 = 6

Answer:

There are 6 green fish in the aquarium.

(2m ^6)^3 is the same as ;

(2 ^1 × m ^ 6) ^ 3.....multiply the powers 1 and 6 by 3

2 ^ (1×3) × m ^ (6×3).....this equals;

2 ^ 3 × m ^ 18

8m^18

What is the value of H
never [62]

Answer:

h = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

the 2 unknown interior angles = 180 - 2h ( straight angle ), hence

the sum of the 3 angles

180- 2h + 180 - 2h + 40 = 180

400 - 4h = 180 ( subtract 400 from both sides )

- 4h = - 220 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

h = 55
