<h3><u>The first number, x, is equal to 955.</u></h3><h3><u>The second number, y, is equal to 191.</u></h3>

x = 5y

x - y = 764

Because we have a value for x, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for y.

5y - y = 764

Combine like terms.

4y = 764

Divide both sides by 4.

y = 191

Because we have a value for y, we can solve for x.

x = 5(191)

x = 955

X²- 6x = 7 FInd the soultion to the equation by completing the square
atroni [7]

Answer:

x = - 1, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 6x = 7

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 3) x + 9 = 7 + 9

(x - 3)² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 3 = ± \sqrt{16} = ± 4

Add 3 to both sides

x = 3 ± 4, that is

x = 3 + 4 = 7 or x = 3 - 4 = - 1

You plant flowers in your garden and only 75% of them sprout how many can you predict to sprout if you plant 20 seeds?
SSSSS [86.1K]
Well basically by reading this question, I believe that if 75% sprout of the 20 seeds your equation would look like this 20(0.75) 0.75 is basically a simplified version of the 75% just written as a decimal so basically your answer would be 15 seeds ( so I believe you will be able to predict that 15 seeds will sprout! Let me know if this was either, helpful or non- helpful! I hope you have done a wonderful job!
