Answer:

75% may also be expressed as 75/100=3/4 or as 0.75 as needed.

 

Let x = the number

 

Translate:

 "if 75% of a number is 60"       means

     (75/100)  *  x      =  60            [the word "of" usually means multiply]

     (3/4) x = 60                           [reduce or just write it this way]

        x  = 60(4/3)                       [multiply both sides by  4/3]

        x = 80

Find a quadratic equation with roots -1, 4i and -1 - 4i
vazorg [7]
\bf \textit{difference of squares}
\\\\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
\\\\\\
\textit{also recall that }i^2=-1\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
x=-1+4i\implies &x+1-4i=0\\
x=-1-4i\implies &x+1+4i=0
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
(x+1-4i)(x+1+4i)=\stackrel{y}{0}
\\\\\\\
[(x+1)~~-~~(4i)][(x+1)~~+~~(4i)]=y
\\\\\\\
[(x+1)^2~~-~~(4i)^2]=0\implies (x^2+2x+1)~-~(4^2i^2)=y
\\\\\\
(x^2+2x+1)~-~(16\cdot -1)=y\implies (x^2+2x+1)~-~(-16)=y
\\\\\\
x^2+2x+1~~+16=y\implies x^2+2x+17=y

How can i learn times faster like 3's til 12's in Times i have a hard time in my times can someone tell me how i can learn them
iogann1982 [59]
To get better at 12's:
Write down on your paper your 1's facts in column skip 5 and 11 going to 14 (a vertical line - line that goes up and down). To the right of that column, write your two's facts 0 to 8 and repeat again. Then you will have your 12's! Should look as follows

12's:

0    0 = 12 x0
1    2 = 12 x1
2    4 = 12 x2
3    6 = 12 x3
4    8 = 12 x4
6    0 = 12 x5
7    2 = 12 x6
8    4 = 12 x7
9    6 = 12 x8
10  8 = 12 x9
12  0 = 12 x10
13  2 = 12 x 11
14  4 = 12 x 12
