Without experience that would help you recognize it right away, I think
you would just need to try numbers until you find it.
Pick a number, multiply it by itself with pencil and paper, and see if it works.
(2)² = 4 too small
(3)² = 9 too small, and not growing fast enough; this could take all day
(10)² = 100 still too small
(15)² = 225 oops, too big; go back down
(12)² = 144 too small
(14)² = 196 too big
(13)² = 169 just right; hope the bears don't come back too soon
Answer:
Rocco doesn't have enough money to buy the golf irons
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the rest of the money left in the savings account
using proportion
step 2
we know that
The set of golf irons has an original price of $359
Applying 40% discount
100%-40%=60%=60/100=0.60
after the discount the price will be
therefore
Rocco doesn't have enough money to buy the golf irons
Minus p both sides
xy=5-p
divide both sides by x
y=(5-p)/x
B
Both have the same denominator
Remove the denominator
5=n
