Answer: 126cm, 136.5cm, 147cm, 144cm, 100cm
Step-by-step explanation: 5% increase is the same as multiplying by 1.05, and to do it in reverse you divide instead.
120*1.05=126cm
130*1.05=136.5cm
140*1.05=147cm
151.2/1.05=144cm
105/1.05=100cm
Answer:
a = 
x = 27y

<u>Question 1</u>
Step 1: Write out discriminant
d = b² - 4ac
Step 2: Subtract b² on both sides
d - b² = -4ac
Step 3: Divide both sides by -1
b² - d = 4ac
Step 4: Divide both sides by 4c
a = 
<u>Question 2</u>
Step 1: Write out equation
2/3(x - 18y) = 6y
Step 2: Distribute parenthesis
2/3x - 12y = 6y
Step 3: Isolate <em>x </em>by adding 12y on both sides
2/3x = 18y
Step 4: Divide both sides by 2/3
x = 27y
