Answer:

x=1+2√2 or x=1−2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3x2−6x=21

Step 1: Since the coefficient of 3x^2 is 3, divide both sides by 3.

3x2−6x

3

=

21

3

x2−2x=7

Step 2: The coefficient of -2x is -2. Let b=-2.  

Then we need to add (b/2)^2=1 to both sides to complete the square.

Add 1 to both sides.

x2−2x+1=7+1

x2−2x+1=8

Step 3: Factor left side.

(x−1)2=8

Step 4: Take square root.

x−1=±√8

Step 5: Add 1 to both sides.

x−1+1=1±√8

x=1±√8

x=1+2√2 or x=1−2√2

Answer:

2x - 7y = -34.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the line we want is perpendicular to y= -7/2 x + 9 it's slope will be

-1 /(-7/2) = 2/7.

Now we find the point of intersection ofn the 2 given  lines:

x    + y = 10

3x - 4y = -12

Multiply the first equation by -3:

-3x - 3y = -30

Now add this last equation to the second one:

-7y =  -42

y = 6

Plug y = 6 into the first equation:

x + 6 = 10

x = 4.

So the point of intersection is (4, 6) and the equation we want passes through this, so using the point-slope form of  straight line we have:

y - 6 = 2/7(x - 4)

7y - 42 = 2(x - 4)

7y - 42 = 2x - 8

2x - 7y = -42 + 8

2x - 7y = -34

Percent of change from 125cm to 87.5cm
VikaD [51]
Percent Change from 125cm to 87.5cm

% Change = (87.5 - 125) / 125  * 100%

                 =  -37.5 / 125 * 100%

                 = -0.3 * 100%

                 = -30 %

The percent change is -30 %  or 30% decrease.
