Remember that if there is a 25% discount, then the amount you are paying represents 75%. We know the original price (ie 100%)
There are several methods.

Which represents the solution(s) of the equation x2 = 36?
mart [117]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 = 36?

solution

x^2-(36)=0

Factoring:  x2-36

Check : 36 is the square of 6

Check :  x2  is the square of  x1  

Factorization is :       (x + 6)  •  (x - 6)

(x + 6) • (x - 6)  = 0

x+6 = 0

x = -6

x-6 = 0

add 6 to both side

x = 6

x = -6
