Answer:

u=6

Step-by-step explanation:

One rule in algebra is what you do to one side, you do it to other side. So if you multiply a number in one side, multiply the same number in other side. Here in this question, you are trying to find the value of the variable u. Variable is called so because the value of it varies depending on different question. Here u is going to be a constant number which when multipled by 3 and then subtracted by 3 equals 15.

So first step is we try to get constants on one side. So we add 3 on both sides to get rid of 3 on left.

3u - 3 + 3= 15+3

3u= 18

Now we divide by 3 on both sides to get u by itself.

3u/3 = 18/3

u= 6

Explain how to find the sum of 3/10 + 4/100
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: 17/50

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to add fractions, we must find a common denominator, in this case, 100.

Then, we must make the fractions being added all have the common denominator.

So, we must multiply 3/10 * 10/10, which equals 30/100

30/100 + 4/100

Then, just add across the numerator to get 34/100, which can be simplified to 17/50

4x^2-21x-18=0<br> Find the discriminate
SpyIntel [72]

a = 4, b = -21, c = -18

to keep from getting "mixed up", evaluate the discriminant first ...

b<sup>2</sup> - 4ac = (-21)<sup>2</sup> - 4(4)(-18) = 729

sqrt(729) = 27

x = (21 +/- 27)/8

x = -3/4, x = 6

since the discriminant is a perfect square, the original quadratic will factor ...

4x<sup>2</sup> - 21x - 18 = 0

(4x + 3)(x - 6) = 0

x = -3/4, x = 6
