Answer:
x = - 2, x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 10 x = 24 ( subtract 24 from both sides )
x² - 10x - 24 = 0 ← in standard form
To factorise the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 24) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 10)
The factors are - 12 and + 2, since
- 12 × 2 = - 24 and - 12 + 2 = - 10, thus
(x - 12)(x + 2) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
Answer:
Jamal :
have = $18
need = $46-$18
= $28
saves = $5 each week
= $5 × 5 weeks
= $25 ( not enough )
Samuel :
have = $10
need = $46 - $10
= $36
saves = $7 each week
= $7 × 5 weeks
= $35 ( not enough )
thus, both boys would not have enough money to pay for the trip .

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-0.45, 2/5, 54%
Step-by-step explanation:
54%=54/100
=87/50
2/5=20/50
-0.45 must be the smallest as it is negative
