Try -7 and 20
I’m sorry if this is wrong
Answer :
x = 53.85
Step by step explanation:
If 78% of x (some numbers) is equal to 42, then we must set this as an equation to find it.
1) Rewriting 78% as a fraction and considering that when we say 78% of some number (x) we mean a product.
78% = 78/100 ➡️ 78/100x = 42
2) Then we can go on :
100 * 78/100x = 42 * 100
78x = 4200
78x/78 = 4200/78 ➡️ x = 53.85
3) Alternatively, simply dividing 42 by 0.78 (78%) would come to the same result :
42/0.78 = 53.85
It has become somewhat fashionable to have students derive the Quadratic Formula themselves; this is done by completing the square for the generic quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0. While I can understand the impulse (showing students how the Formula was invented, and thereby providing a concrete example of the usefulness of abstract symbolic manipulation), the computations involved are often a bit beyond the average student at this point.
Answer:
The correct answer is: Option D) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation is:
In order to find that which values of x makes the equation true, we have to put each value of x in the equation. When both sides of equations will be equal, that value of x will be true for the equation.
Putting x = 2
Putting x = 3
Putting x=4
Putting x = 5
The equation is true for x = 5
Hence,
The correct answer is: Option D) 5
