Answer:

x + .20 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation would be x + .20= 1, or 1.00, because if you turn 20% into a decimal, it becomes .20. The total you are trying to find is 1 whole, in which this case it would simply be one as there is no other information. The x is first as if you had the .20 first, you would have to divide each side by .20, which would make x = 5, and that would not make sense.

Finding X: To find, subtract on each side by .20 due to the fact you are adding and need to do the opposite, .20-.20 cancels out and 1.00-.20 is .80, so you are left with x=.80

Show that x³ + y³ + z³ - 3xyz is a multiple of x+y+z

White raven [17]

x³ + y³ + z³ - 3xyz is a multiple of x+y+z.

<h3>What is a multiple?</h3>

It should be noted that a multiple simply means a number that van be divided by another a certain number if times without a remainder.

Put x + y + z = 0

= x³ + y³ + z³ - 3xyx

= 0(x² + y² + z² - xt - yz - zx)

= x³ + y³ + z³ - 3xyz = 0.

x³ + y³ + z³ = 3xyz
