0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of people increased by 2.
This means as a ratio it is now 6/4 as many as originally planned.
6/4 can be reduced to 3/2.
The time and the number of people are inversely proportional, so the food would last 2/3 ( inverse is flipping the original ratio over) the original length of time.
This means the length of time the food lasts is reduced by 1/3, which is 33.3%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The required roots of given equation are ~
The solution is in attachment ~
Given: 2<span>√(x - 5) = 2
Taking the square of both sides:
[</span>2√(x - 5) = 2]^2
4(x - 5) = 4
x - 5 = 1
x = 6
Among the choices, the correct answer is A. <span>x = 6, solution is not extraneous .</span>
