For what values of x is x2+2x=24 true?

Mathematics

JulijaS [17]2 years ago

Answer:

x=-6 and x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

We must solve the quadratic equation to find the values of x that satisfy equality

x^2+2x=24

Subtract 24 on both sides of equality

x^2+2x-24=24-24

x^2+2x-24=0

Now we factor the quadratic equation

Identify two numbers that when you add them you get as a result 2 and when you multiply them you get as a result -24

The numbers sought are: 6 and -4

So the factors are:

(x+6)(x-4)=0

Finally note that the solutions are:

x=-6 and x=4

A warehouse worker fills 150 orders per day on average. From day to day, the number of orders varies by 2%. What is the range of
choli [55]

Answer:

The range is from 147 to 153 orders per day

Step-by-step explanation:

orders varies by 2% means that orders can be LOWER THAN THE AVERAGE, or HIGHER THAN THE AVERAGE.

That is, by 2%.

First, we need to find the decimal of 2%, so

2/100 = 0.02

We multiply this with the average number of order, 150, to get the varying amount:

0.02 * 150 = 3

Thus, the range would be:

150 - 3 = 147

150 + 3 = 153

The range is from 147 to 153 orders per day

A pet shop sells guinea pigs and goldfish.
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that a pet shop sells guinea pigs and goldfish and that the ratio of guinea pigs to goldfish is 20:28.

a) Give this ratio in its simplest form.

The ratio of guinea pigs to goldfish is 20:28. The highest common factor to 20 and 28 is 4. Therefore 20 = 4 × 5 and 28 = 4 × 7. So, the ratio in its simplest form will be 5:7.

b. The shop has a total of 120 guinea pigs and fish. Work out the number of guinea pigs the shop has.

The ratio of guinea pig and goldfish is 5:7. If the shop has a total of 120 guinea pigs and fish, the number of guinea pigs the shop has will be:

= 5/12 × 120

= 5 × 10

= 50 guinea pigs
