Answer:

$89.93

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable x = original price

40/100 = 35.97/x

Cross multiply

40 × x = 100 × 35.97

40x = 3597

Divide both sides by 40

x = 89.925

Round to the nearest cent:

5 rounds up so:

89.93

Check your work (use the original number instead of the rounded number to be more exact):

89.925 × 40%

Convert the percentage into a decimal to multiply:

89.925 × 0.40

35.97

Correct!

Illusion [34]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²-2x-9=0

this is a quadratic equation so we will use the quadratic formula .

 Δ= b²-4*a*c

  • b= -2
  • a=  2
  • c=  -9

let's calculate Δ to khow how many solutions this equations have .

 Δ= (-2)²-4*2*(-9)

    = 76

 we notice that 76>0

so this equation has two solutions :  (-b-√76)/4 and (-b+√76)/4

  • let's calculte the values :
  • (-b-√76)/4= \frac{-2-\sqrt{76} }{4}         (-b+√76)/4=\frac{-2+\sqrt{76} }{4}  

the trick here is to notice that :

\sqrt{76} = \sqrt{19*4}

      = \sqrt{19} *\sqrt{4}

      = 2\sqrt{19}

Now we will simplify Δ by factoring by 2

  • \frac{2*(-1(+/-)\sqrt{19} }{2*2} = \frac{-1(+/-)\sqrt{19} }{2}

so the answer is a .

zaharov [31]

Answer:

As shown in picture, the area is divided into 4 parts: 3 triangles and 1 rectangles.

Total area:

A = smallest triangle + medium triangle + largest triangle + rectangle

   = 2 x 2 x 1/2 + 2 x 6 x 1/2 + 4 x (2 + 2 + 6) x 1/2 + 2 x 2

   = 2 + 6 + 20 + 4

   = 32

Hope this helps!

1. What is an extraneous solution of an equation?
Vadim26 [7]
“Extraneous solutions are not solutions at all. They arise from outside the problem, from the method of solution. They are extraneous because they are not solutions of the original problem. ... To tell if a "solution" is extraneous you need to go back to the original problem and check to see if it is actually a solution.”

Basically, they are an answer you get when you solve a problem, but they don’t actually make the equation true so you disregard it.
