Answer:
x = - 3 ± 
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x + 7 = 0 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
x² + 6x = - 7
using the method of completing the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = - 7 + 9
(x + 3)² = 2 ( take square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ±
( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 
Answer:
$7.20
Step-by-step explanation:
20% is the same as 0.2 or 2/10, which simplifies to 1/5.
1/5*36=36/5=7.20
Or you could straight up to 20%*36=7.20
21% were absent, if you divide 146 by 680 and multiply by 100, then round to the nearest whole number, you get 21
Answer:
35 pounds of tea for 80 cents.
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation::
value + value = value
80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50
80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50
20x = 14*50
x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)
50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)
