Answer:
x=50
Step-by-step explanation:
note that 40% is 2/5
Therefore, 30 tomatoes is 1- 2/5 = 3/5
3/5 of the tomatoes last year is 30
lets say tomatoes = x
3/5 x = 30
divide by 3 on both sides
1/5 x = 10
multiply by 5 on both sides
x=50

hope it helped :D
No, 1 and 3/9 can be simplified to 1 and 1/3
Answer: x = (sqrt(7) + 2)/3 and
x = ( – sqrt(7) + 2)/3
Explanation:
3x^2 - 4x - 1 = 0
Divide both sides by 3:
3x^2/3 - 4/3x - 1/3 = 0/3
x^2 - 4/3x - 1/3 = 0
x^2 - 4/3x = 1/3
x^2 - 4/3x + (2/3)^2 = 1/3 + (2/3)^2
(x - 2/3)^2 = 1/3 + 4/9
(x - 2/3)^2 = 7/9
Sqrt both sides:
x - 2/3 = sqrt (7/9)
x - 2/3 = |sqrt(7)/3|
Set x -2/3 = sqrt(7)/3
=> x = (sqrt(7) + 2)/3
Set x - 2/3 = - sqrt(7)/3
=> x = ( - sqrt(7) + 2)/3
