Answer:

<u>x = 3</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide each term by  3  and simplify.

x - 4 = \frac{-3}{3}

Cancel the common factor of  3 .

x - 4 = -1

Move all terms not containing  x  to the right side of the equation.

x = -1 + 4

Add -1 and 4.

<u>x = 3</u>

<u>Hope this helps!</u>

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 4) = -3

Divide by 3

3/3(x - 4) = -3/3

x-4 = -1

Add 4 to each side

x-4+4 = -1+4

x = 3

Answer:

\frac{1}{2} (a + 2b)(a - b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you require the expression to be factored

Given

\frac{1}{2} a² + \frac{1}{2} ab - b² ← factor out \frac{1}{2} from each term

= \frac{1}{2} (a² + ab - 2b²) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the coefficient of the b² term(- 2) which sum to give the coefficient of the ab- term (+ 1)

The factors are + 2 and - 1, since

2 × - 1 = - 2 and 2 - 1 = + 1, thus

a² + ab - 2b² = (a + 2b)(a - b) and

\frac{1}{2} a² + \frac{1}{2} ab - b² = \frac{1}{2}(a + 2b)(a - b)

The 60$ system had a greater percentage decrease because it was a lower number to begin with. Taking the same portion out of two different numbers will always be a greater decrease for the lower number.
