Answer:
or
Step-by-step explanation:
The given quadratic equation is

Group the constant terms on the right hand side.


Divide through by 5.

Add the square of half the coefficient of x., which is
to both sides of the equation.

The left hand side is now a perfect square.

Take the square root of both sides;

Answer :
x = 53.85
Step by step explanation:
If 78% of x (some numbers) is equal to 42, then we must set this as an equation to find it.
1) Rewriting 78% as a fraction and considering that when we say 78% of some number (x) we mean a product.
78% = 78/100 ➡️ 78/100x = 42
2) Then we can go on :
100 * 78/100x = 42 * 100
78x = 4200
78x/78 = 4200/78 ➡️ x = 53.85
3) Alternatively, simply dividing 42 by 0.78 (78%) would come to the same result :
42/0.78 = 53.85
Answer:
If 4/8 cm = 25 miles
If 4.8 cm = 240 miles
If 48 cm = 2400
Step-by-step explanation:
4/8 x 50
4.8 x 50
48 x 50
I was unsure if there was a fraction bar or decimal. or if it was 48 so I gave all possibilities.
The product of a number and 3 can be represented as 3n (where n = unknown number). Then 6 less than 3n is 3n - 6.
3n - 6 = -18
3n = -12
n = -4
Check:
-4 x 3 = -12
-12 - 6 = -18 (this works!)
6x-30 is equivalent to the expression
