If i'm not wrong,i think the answer is:

30％=0.3
X=0.3+12=12.3

Since we're trying to find X, what is X? X is the whole. I'm using the "Part = Percent x Whole" formula (Whole = Part ÷ Percent) to find the answer. 12 ÷ 0.3 (30% in decimal form) = 40. And we can do the opposite to see if it's right, 40 x 0.3 = 12.

Hope this helps,

The equation shown below involves a perfect square trinomial. 4x2 + 20x + 25 = 7 Which of the following is a step in solving thi

fomenos

4 x^2 + 20 x + 25 = 7
Divide both sides by 4:
x^2 + 5 x + 25/4 = 7/4
Write the left-hand side as a square:
(x + 5/2)^2 = 7/4
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 5/2 = sqrt(7)/2 or x + 5/2 = -sqrt(7)/2
Subtract 5/2 from both sides:
x = sqrt(7)/2 - 5/2 or x + 5/2 = -sqrt(7)/2
Subtract 5/2 from both sides:
Answer: x = sqrt(7)/2 - 5/2 or x = -5/2 - sqrt(7)/2

Answer:

D. $\frac{4 \sqrt{33} }{33}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tan \alpha = \frac{4}{ \sqrt{33} } \\ = \frac{4}{ \sqrt{33} } \times \frac{ \sqrt{33} }{ \sqrt{33} } \\ \\ = \frac{4 \sqrt{33} }{ {( \sqrt{33)} }^{2} } \\ \\ \tan \alpha = \frac{4 \sqrt{33} }{33}$

10)
variable : cost of 1 square foot flooring = x

equation :
60x + 80 = 287
60x = 287 - 80
x = (287-80) / 60

11)
variable : doughnut cost = d

equation :
3(1.25) + 6d = 6.90
3.75 + 6d = 6.90
6d = 6.90 - 3.75
d = (6.90 - 3.75) / 6

12)
variable : smaller number = x

equation :
x + x + 1 = -29
2x + 1 = -29
2x = -29 - 1
x = (-29 - 1) / 2

13)
variable : number of shrubs : n

eqution :
n(25) + 110 = 260
25n = 260 - 110
n = (260 - 110) / 25
