In winter, the price of apples suddenly went up by$0.75 per pound. Sam bought 3 pounds of apples at the new price for a total of

White raven [17]

From the information given, the original price per pound was increased by $ 0.75
Let the original price be x, so the new price is x + 0.75

Sam bought 3 pounds of apples at new price and it cost him 5.88

so we form an equation:

3 (x + 0.75) = 5.88

3x + 2.25 = 5.88

3x = 5.88 - 2.25

3x = 3.63

x = 3.63 / 3

x = 1.21

Therefore the original price per pound is 1.21 dollars

Given the equation square root of quantity 2x plus 8 end quantity equals 6, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solu

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Solution: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

$\sqrt{2x+8}=6$

In order to solve the equation both sides will be squared

$(\sqrt{2x+8})^{2} = (6)^2 \\2x+8 = 36\\2x = 36-8\\2x = 28\\x = 14$

Verifying the solution

$\sqrt{2(14)+8} = 6\\ \sqrt{28+8} = 6\\\sqrt{36} = 6\\6 = 6$
