10x^2 = 50x.....subtract 50x from both sides
10x^2 - 50x = 0...factor
10x(x - 5) = 0
10x = 0
x = 0 <== this one is eliminated because x cannot be zero
x - 5 = 0
x = 5 <== ur answer
The answer is $50
Assume the original cost price to be $x
Therefore ,
X - 36X/100 = $32
-> 100x - 36x = 32 x 100
-> 64x = 3200
-> x = 3200/64
-> x = 50
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. So if the slope is -2/5...to find the negative reciprocal, " flip " the slope and change the sign.
So we flip -2/5 and we get 5/-2...and now we change the sign...and we get 5/2. So our perpendicular slope will be 5/2.
So if you subtract the 0 out from the left side, the equation is now
. Since a x is common in both of the terms on the left side, you can factor it out, now making the equation look like
. When factoring, each of the separate things (x and (x-3)), must equal zero while the other one doesn't matter. So in order for the equation to be 0, the only potential options for x is 0 and 3. Therefore x=0 and x=3 are the two solutions
Answer:
x+5=5
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an equation where you are actually solving it. The others are expressions.
