So remember that percent means parts out of 100 so
52%=52/100=0.52
26%=26/100=0.26
'of' means multily
0.52 times x=65
divide both sides by 00.52
x=125
26% of a number is 39
0.26 times y=39
divide both sides by 0.26
y=150
x=125
y=150
y is greater
you know that becuase we know that 52% is exatly twice of 26% so therefor, if x=y then 52% of x is half of 26% of y so to compare them, we just divide the 65 number by 2 to find 26% of that number to get 65/2=32.5
32.5<39 so x is smaller number
Let the speed of Brian = X
Brian drove at X miles per hour for 4 hours
Jake drove at X-15 for 4 hours
Set up an equation to get:
4x + 4(x-15) = 500 miles
Simplify:
4x + 4x -60 = 500
8x - 60 = 500
Add 60 to both sides:
8x = 560
Divide both sides by 8:
X = 560/8
X = 70
Brian's speed was x = 70 miles per hour.
Jake's speed was x - 15 = 70-15 = 55 miles per hour.
The area of this polygon is 35.5 units∧2.
Good luck!!!!

Answer:
(3 ± √23 * i) /4
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we can apply the Quadratic Equation.
In an equation of form ax²+bx+c = 0, we can solve for x by applying the Quadratic Equation, or x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)
Matching up values, a is what's multiplied by x², b is what's multiplied by x, and c is the constant, so a = 2, b = -3, and c = 4
Plugging these values into our equation, we get
x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)
x = (-(-3) ± √(3²-4(2)(4)))/(2(2))
= (3 ± √(9-32))/4
= (3 ± √(-23))/4
= (3 ± √23 * i) /4
