Answer: 3 rolls of tape

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make an equation:

2 3/4x=8 1/4; x=number of rolls of tape

2. Divide both sides by 2 3/4 to isolate x:

x=8 1/4 divided by 2 3/4

3. Simplify:

x=3

Have a nice day! :D

Show work and solve for √ ( 5 x − 9 ) − 1 = x.
Mandarinka [93]

sqrt (5x - 9) - 1 = x

sqrt(5x - 9) = x + 1

Square both sides:_

5x - 9 = x^2 + 2x + 1

x^2 - 3x + 10 = 0

(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0

x = 5 or -2.

Lets look for for any extraneous solutions:-

x = 5 ;  sqrt (5*5-9) - 1 = sqrt16 - 1 =  3  and  x = 3  (right hand side of equation)

so x = 5 is a solution

x = -2:  sqrt(5*-2 - 9) - 1 =  sqrt (-19) - 1  and x = -2  so this is extraneous

Answer:- One solution x = 5
