Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'x' = number
x³ - x² = 2x
x³- x² - 2x = 0
x(x² - x - 2) = 0
x(x - 2)(x + 1) = 0
x = -1, 0, 2
the only positive solution is the number 2
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have 24-(5+9)/2
So do 5+9=14
24-14=10
10/2=5
answer is 5
Answer:
You are currently 40 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the current age is represented by the variable x.
x = current age
The question says that "if you take half my age and add 7, you get my age 13 years ago"
This can be represented like this:
1/2(x) + 7 = x - 13
Now we solve for x using basic algebra:
1/2(x) = x - 20
-1/2(x) = -20
x = 40
To check if this is correct, plug it back into the equation and see if both sides equal each other:
1/2(40) + 7 = (40) - 13
20 + 7 = 27
27 = 27
