Step-by-step explanation:if im wrong sorry
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
3(4)+(5)(4)-2(12)
then solve
12+20-24=8
Answer:
12,662 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of books = 75,972
No. of science books = ⅓ of 75,972 = ⅓*75,972 = 25,324 books.
No. of business books = 75% of the remaining books = 75% of (75,972 - 25,324)
= 
No. of business books = 37,986
No. of maths books in the math section = 75,972 - (25,324 + 37,986)
= 75,972 - 63,310
= 12,662 books
This is a quadratic equation, i.e. an equation involving a polynomial of degree 2. To solve them, you must rearrange them first, so that all terms are on the same side, so we get

i.e. now we're looking for the roots of the polynomial. To find them, we can use the following formula:

where
is a compact way to indicate both solutions
and
, while
are the coefficients of the quadratic equation, i.e. we consider the polynomial
.
So, in your case, we have 
Plug those values into the formula to get

So, the two solutions are


Okay, let's work this out...
What we know:
-32 stamps in all
- rows (horizontal)
- same # in each
What we "want to know" :
- # of combinations (different)
Problem Solving :
This is actually very easy its just the words than get ya!
1st : we need to figure out the factors of 32...
In other words, we need to figure out _x_=32 and how many different combinations and ways there are!
Note:(* means multiplication)
#1: What are the factors of 32?
32: 1*32 , 2*16 , 4*8
32: 32*1 , 16*2 , 8*4
The factors (not including 1 are 2,4,8,16)
Now, as you can see, there are 4 ways to get 32 as shown first.

^
That ¦ is 1 way with 16 in 2 rows. Basic multiplication, 16*2=32 or 16+16=32.
But, this is also a way,
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
||
Now there should be 2 in each row and 16 rows. Again 2*16=32 or 2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2=32
That's two ways so far.
||||||||
||||||||
||||||||
||||||||
Another way which is 4 rows with 8 in each.
4*8=32 or 8+8+8+8=32
But, this is also a way,
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
||||
Now that is 8 rows with 4 in each. 8*4=32 or 4+4+4+4+4+4+4+4=32
That was our fourth way.
Again NOT including 1. If you include 1 then there will be 6 ways but aside from that there are 4 ways.
I hope that helped I worked hard typing this all for you. Any questions just ask!
