Answer:
1) 5 2) 6 3) 1.25 or -1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
1. x^2 - 25 = 0
x^2 - 25 = 0
First, add 25 to both sides!
x^2 = 25
Now square root both sides.
x = 5
2. (x-2)^2 = 16
First, square root both sides.
(x-2) = 4
Add 2 on both sides.
(x) = 6
x = 6
3. Quadratic Formula = -b ± 
/ 2a
Substitute in:
-6 ±
/ 2(2)
-6±
/ 4
Both forms:
-6 + 
/ 4
5 / 4 = 1.25
Negative:
-6 - 1 / 4
-7 / 4 = -1.75
Multiply the cost by 1.2 (120%) to add 20% tip, and then multiply by 0.85 (85%) to take off 15%
78.96 x 1.2 x 0.85 = 80.54
Multiply 2/3 by the reciprocal, 3/2, on both sides.
Answer:
14/33
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount of beads is 8+4 = 12. 8 of these are black beads, so that is what we want, so 8/12 or 2/3. For the second one, one black bead is already taken so 8-1 = 7 are left and for the total 12 - 1 = 11 are left, so 7/11. Multiply this by 2/3 and we get 14/33.
