Answer:
New value =
39 - Percentage decrease =
39 - (3% × 39) =
39 - 3% × 39 =
(1 - 3%) × 39 =
(100% - 3%) × 39 =
97% × 39 =
97 ÷ 100 × 39 =
97 × 39 ÷ 100 =
3,783 ÷ 100 =
37.83
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt( 7x+2) = sqrt(3x+7)
Square each side
(sqrt( 7x+2))^2 = (sqrt(3x+7))^2
7x+2 = 3x+7
Subtract 3x from each side
7x-3x +2 = 3x+7-3x
4x+2 = 7
Subtract 2 from each side
4x+2-2 = 7-2
4x = 5
Divide by 4
4x/4 = 5/4
x = 1 1/4
Check for extraneous solution
sqrt( 7*5/4+2) = sqrt(3*5/4+7)
sqrt( 35/4 + 8/4) = sqrt(15/4+28/4)
sqrt( 43/4) = sqrt(43/4)
Solution is valid
