Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
I think it's supposed to be
y = x² - 12x + 36
Set the equation equal to zero and solve...
0 = x² - 12x + 36
Now factor. What 2 numbers add to -12, and multiply to 36?
-6 and -6, so our factors are
0 = (x - 6)(x - 6)
So
0 = x - 6, then
6 = x
Answer:3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 of the staff are male. The entire staff is represented by the fraction 8/8. Taking 5/8 from this, what we have left is
8/8-5/8 = 3/8 of the staff are female.
What you can do is multiply 400*20= 8,000. From here, we know that 399*20 is just one less group of 20 than 400. Therefore, we can subtract (1*20) from 8,000 to get the final answer.
8000-20=7980
Hope this helps!
