Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
20% = 12
48
1/6 = 8
left = 40
40/60 = 4/6
4/6 = 2/3
To complete a square for ax²+bx+c, you first make a=1.
in this case, a is already 1
move c to the right side: x²+14x=-47
next, add (1/2 of b)² to both sides, in this case, b=14, half of 14 is 7, so x²+14x+ 7²=-47+7²
the left side is now a perfect square: (x+7)²=2
x+7=√2 or x+7=-√2
x=√2-7, or x=-2-√7
It is not likely because it is less then 50% which 50 is half and 25% is 1/4 chance.
Write an equation system based on the problem
"Agatha is five times older than her son, Bob" could be written as:
a = 5b.......(first equation)
"Three years ago, she was nine times older" could be written as:
a - 3 = 9(b - 3)......(second equation)
Solve the equation system
To find the value of b, substitute 5b as a to the second equation
a - 3 = 9(b - 3)
5b - 3 = 9(b - 3)
5b - 3 = 9b - 27
5b - 9b = -27 + 3
-4b = -24
b = -24/-4
b = 6
Her son, Bob, is 6 years old
To find Agatha's age, substitute the value of b to the first equation
a = 5b
a = 5 × 6
a = 30
Agatha is 30 years old
