Salei is 70%
28=70%
divide both sides by 7
4=10%
times both sides by 10
40=100%
regular price=$40

What are the solutions of the equation (x-3)^2 + 2(x-3) -8 = 0

Mariulka [41]

Expand and simplify
(x-3) (x-3) +2(x-3) -8=0
(x-3+2)(x-3)-8=0
(x-1)(x-3)-8=0
x^2 -4x +3-8=0
x^2 - 4x -5=0
x^2 -5x +x-5=0
x(x-5)+x-5=0
(x+1)(x-5)=0
x= - 1, 5

Answer:

$3\frac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to divide the given distance by 3.

Then we will be able to find the distance between markers.

Given distance is

$9\frac{3}{4} \\=\frac{36+3}{4}\\ =\frac{39}{4}$

Since, there are three markers,

So, we have to divide this distance by 3

So, the distance between markers is-

$\frac{\frac{39}{4}} {3} \\=\frac{39}{4} * \frac{1}{3} \\=\frac{13}{4}$

So, the distance between marker is

$\frac{13}{4}$

Now, we have to convert this into mixed number.

Then, the distance is-

$\frac{13}{4}\\ =3\frac{1}{4}$
