Answer:
1/5x - 12 = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing says 12 less THAN. Normally, when you see something in word problems like "less than" it means you need to switch the places.
So rather than 12 - 1/5, it's 1/5 - 12.
1/5 of a number means you are multiplying that number by 1/5. we'll use x (or any letter really, doesn't matter) to represent the unknown number.
Remember that if a variable and number is written together, it means multiplication.
So, 1/5x - 12 = -7.

Answer:
X=9 or x=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
X^2=81
Can be written as
x^2-81=0
Factorize by the property:
a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)
So the expression becomes:
(x-9)(x+9)=0
Therefore, either x-9=0or x+9=0
Then the solutions are x=9 or x=-9
