34% = 0.34
120 * 0.34 = 40.8
Solution: it is 40.8
It would be much easier if you attached a table. Anyway I know what you need to do. Just make an equation and put the numbers from the table given you in the task. And you'll solve it.
Laura will catch up after 15 minutes, i hope this helps.
Answer:
x = - 3 or x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² - 4x + 6
If f(x) = 27, then equating gives
x² - 4x + 6 = 27 ( subtract 27 from both sides )
x² - 4x - 21 = 0 ← in standard form
Consider the factors of the constant term ( - 21) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( - 4)
The factors are - 7 and + 3, since
- 7 × 3 = - 21 and - 7 + 3 = - 4, hence
(x - 7)(x + 3) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7
