Since the ground floor has 52 windows, and every floor, here are 6 fewer windows than the floor below it, we make a expression.

52-y=x.

We are trying to solve for x, not y.

In order to get 'y,' you have to multiply 8 by 6. Which is going to be 48.

(If you don't know multiplication, respectively.)

So now that we solved for y, =48 .... 52-48= ....... = x

Now all we have to do is simply subtract.

x=4.

So the answer to the problem is 4 windows on the 8th floor.

Check the picture below.

\bf \cfrac{8}{12}=\cfrac{x+4}{2x+1}\implies 16x+8=12x+48\implies 4x=40
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{40}{4}\implies x=10

Solve the equation the square root of the quantity x plus 4 minus 3 equals 1 for the variable.
Kruka [31]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt(x+4) - 3 = 1

First get the sqrt all by itself on one side of the equation. Add 3 to both sides of the equation.

sqrt(x+4) = 1 + 3

sqrt(x+4) = 4

To "fix" the sqrt, that is, "undo it" and get rid of it, you have to SQUARE both sides of the equation.

(sqrt(x+4))^2 = 4^2

x + 4 = 16

subtract 4 to finish up.

x = 12

Check:

sqrt(12 + 4) - 3 = 1

sqrt16 - 3 = 1

4 - 3 = 1

1 = 1 Check!
