Answer:

x = 12 or x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

x^2 - 9 x = 36

Subtract 36 from both sides:

x^2 - 9 x - 36 = 0

x = (9 ± sqrt((-9)^2 - 4 (-36)))/2 = (9 ± sqrt(81 + 144))/2 = (9 ± sqrt(225))/2:

x = (9 + sqrt(225))/2 or x = (9 - sqrt(225))/2

sqrt(225) = sqrt(9×25) = sqrt(3^2×5^2) = 3×5 = 15:

x = (9 + 15)/2 or x = (9 - 15)/2

(9 + 15)/2 = 24/2 = 12:

x = 12 or x = (9 - 15)/2

(9 - 15)/2 = -6/2 = -3:

Answer: x = 12 or x = -3

Okay, so from the given figure we can see that, < FAE & < FAB forms a linear pair. In a linear pair, the 2 angles will together sum up to 180°. So,

< FAE = 4x°
< FAB = 2x°

__________________

From the explanation, we can understand that,

Sum of the linear pair = 180°

< FAE + < FAB = 180°

4x° + 2x° = 180°

6x° = 180°

x° = 180 ÷ 6

x = 30°.

__________________

The value of x will be 30° (3rd option).

kotegsom [21]

So we want to know how much Orlando owes, here's the answer:

Since he pays 121$ every month, the formula would be this:

$y = 2,904 - 121x$ , if we consider x = months.

So the answer is B, $y = 2,904 - 121x$

Hope this helped! c:

It is given in the question that

You work at a T-shirt printing business. Of 1,300 T-shirts shipped, 106 are imperfect.

So out of 1300 T-shirts, number of perfect t-shirts are

$1300-106=1194$

So probability that the t-shirt is printed correctly is

$= \frac{1194}{1300}=0.92$

And to find the percentage, we have to multiply it by 100, and on doing so we will get 92 % .
