Step-by-step explanation:

1.)20x + 100 = 1440

-Let the number of couples be x. So, the total amount paid by all the couple’s are $20x. School paid $100 as security, so the total amount paid is

$ (20x + 100)

2.) 20x = 1440 - 100 ⇒ 20x = 1040

X = 52

3. ) The security money  is $100, so the couples paid $1440- 100 = $1040 in total. As the couples paid $ 20 each than- \frac{1040}{20} = 52

Solve by factorising x² + 11x + 30 = 0<br> dont get think one could someone explain this please.
nalin [4]

Answer:

x={-5,-6}

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+11x+30=0

x²+5x+6x+30=0 (as 5*6=30 and 5+6=11)

x(x+5)+6(x+5)=0

(x+5)(x+6)=0

so

x+5=0

x+6=0

therefore

x=-5

x=-6

How do I find the value of z?
Shalnov [3]
Hello!

The answer is z = 16..

Solve it like this..

#1) Regroup terms

-3 = -7+z/4 ---> -3 = z/4 - 7

#2) Add 7 to both sides.

-3 = z/4 - 7 ---> -3 + 7 = z/4

#3) Do the addition.

-3 + 7 = z/4 ---> 4 = z/4

#4) Multiply both sides by 4.

4 = z/4 ---> 4 * 4 = z.

#5) Do the multiplication.

4 * 4 = z ---> 16 = z

Hope this helps! ☺♥
