Answer:
x = -5 ±4sqrt(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 5)^2 = 48
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x + 5)^2) = ±sqrt(48)
x+5 = ±sqrt(16*3)
x+5 = ±4sqrt(3)
Subtract 5 from each side
x = -5 ±4sqrt(3)
Answer: 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost is $17,955.
Let x be the total amount of his tuition. He paid for 44% of it, or 0.44, with his scholarship. This leaves 100%-44% = 56% = 0.56 of it to be taken care of with loans. We know he took out 10054.52 in loans:
0.56x = 10054.52
Divide both sides by 0.56:
0.56x/0.56 = 10054.52/0.56
x = 17954.50 ≈ 17955
Answer:
-4 or 5
Step-by-step explanation:
let number be x
x²-x=20
Rearrange
x²-x-20=0
(x+4)(x-5)=0
Separate
x+4=0, x-5=0
x=-4 or 5
