Answer:
52/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Use basic Thales therom,

Cross multiply,
3*(5x-8)=4*(3x+7)
3*5x - 3*8 = 4*3x + 4*7
15x - 24 = 12x +28
Add 24 to both sides
15x = 12x + 28 + 24
15x = 12x + 52
Subtract 12x from both sides
15x-12x =52
3x = 52
Divide both sides by 3
x = 52/3
Answer:
$5
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
- 2730.54
- 18.8%
- 62.5% (decrease)
Step-by-step explanation:
The applicable formula is ...
rate = portion/base
so ...
base = portion/rate
Of course, a percentage is a fraction that has been multiplied by 100%.
__
1. base = portion/rate = 456/0.167 ≈ 2730.54
The base is about 2730.54.
__
2. rate = portion/base = 50/266 ≈ 0.18797 ≈ 18.8%
The rate is about 18.8%.
__
3. The decrease can be figured from ...
rate of change = (new amount)/(original) -1 = 33/88 -1
= -5/8 = -0.625 = -62.5%
The rate of decrease is 62.5%.
y=a.(X-x1)(X-x2)
x1 and x2 are x-intercepts
x1=-3
x2=1
other points: (-1,8) and (0,5)
y=a.(x+3).(x-1)
a=-2
f(x)= -2.(x+3)(x-1)
