That is 6x^2
Both x and 6x^2 will divide into 6x^2
Use this equation to solve the problem:
x - (x * .25) = 40
This equation is saying the original price times itself by 25% is 40.
x - (x * .25) = 40
Simplify.
x - .25x = 40
.75x = 40
Divide both sides by .75.
x = 53.33
The original price was $53.33
x + (x + 3) + 
= 75
so you will add up all of the x 's but NOT the x^2
2x + 3 + = 75
Rearrange to put the x^2 in front of 2x
+ 2x + 3 = 75
subtract the 75 from both sides
+ 2x - 72 = 0
Answer:
1.75
c
+
2.25
a
=
1083.00
now we still know, that
a
=
508
−
c
so we can substitute it into the second formula
1.75
c
+
2.25
(
508
−
c
)
=
1083
now its just simple algebra
1.75
c
+
1143
−
2.25
c
=
1083
60
=
0.5
c
so:
c
=
120
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation: Write down the whole number amount, for example: 500. Calculate the equation. The result is the decimal equivalent of the percentage. Multiply the decimal equivalent of the percentage by 100; or move the number's decimal point over two places to the right.
