Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that strange looking thing is a 9, so begin by multiplying both sides by that denominator to get:

x-9=\sqrt{x}+3 then subtract 3 from both sides to get

x-12=\sqrt{x} and then square both sides to get

x^2-24x+144=x and get everything on one side to solve for x by factoring:

x^2-25x+144=0 and factor that however it is you have learned to factor second-degree polynomials to get that

x = 16 and x = 9. We have to check for extraneous solutions because anytime you manipulate an equation, as we did by squaring both sides, you run the risk of these solutions that actually don't work when you plug them back into the original equation. Let's try 16 first:

\frac{16-9}{\sqrt{16}+3 }=1  If 16 is a solution, then this statement will be mathematically true.

\frac{7}{4+3}=1  and   \frac{7}{7}=1 so 16 works. Let's try 9:

\frac{9-9}{\sqrt{9}+3 }=1  We know that one doesn't work, because 9-9 = 0 and 0 over anything = 0, not 1.

x = 16 is the only solution.

Answer:

x =  16

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x-9}{\sqrt{x}+3}=1

Cross multiply,

x - 9 = √x + 3

Subtract 3 from both sides

x - 9 - 3 = √x

x - 12 = √x

Square both sides

(x -12)² = (√x)²

x² - 2 * x*12 + 12² = x

x² - 24x + 144 = x

x² - 24x + 144 - x = 0

x² - 25x + 144 = 0

Sum = -25

Product = 144

Factors = -9 , -16            {(-9)+(-16) = -25  & (-)*(-16) = 144}

x² - 25x + 144 = 0

x² - 16x - 9x + (-9)*(-16) = 0

x(x - 16) - 9(x - 16) = 0

(x - 16) (x - 9) = 0

x - 16 = 0     ; x - 9 = 0

x = 16          ; x = 9

x = 9 is  an extraneous solution.

When we plug in 9 in the LHS of the equation,

LHS = \frac{9-9}{\sqrt{9}+3}

       = \frac{0}{3+3}

        = 0 ≠ RHS

So, x = 16 is the only  solution

1 .Fridays and Saturdays, she works 16 hours

16 x $9.70  = $155.20
answer: her gross pay in a week: $155.20

2.  7 hours on Wednesday, 6 hours on Thursday, and 9 hours on Friday. His gross pay for all three days was $196.90
7 + 6 + 9 = 22
196.90 / 22 = $8.95
answer: his hourly rate was $8.95

3.hourly rate of $11.28 per hour worked 46 hours last week. She works overtime for hours exceeding 40 hours in a week. She is paid overtime at a rate of time and a half. What was her gross pay last week?

$11.28 x 40 = $451.20 ---normal 40 hours paid

46 - 40 = 6 (6 hours over time)

11.28 + 11.28/ 2 = $16.92 (overtime pays a rate of time and a half)

6 * $16.92 = $101.52

$451.20(40hours) +  $101.52(6hours overtime) = $552.72

answer: her gross pay last week was $552.72

4. Paul received a $15 tip on a meal that cost $120. What percent of the meal cost was the tip?

answer: percent of the meal cost was the tip was 12.5%

5. Carly earns a weekly salary of $720 plus 4% commission. Last week, she sold $3250 worth of products. What was her gross pay?

4% = .04
$3,250  * .04 = $130 (commission on sold products)

$720  + $ 130 = $850
