If you are going from a larger unit to a smaller unit, you multiply. If you are going from a smaller unit, you divide
Answer:
Required number is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the required number be a.
Given,
Sum of ten times the integer and seven times it’s square is 152.
= > Ten times of a + seven times of it's square = 152
= > 10( a ) + 7( a )^2 = 152
= > 10a + 7a^2 - 152 = 0
= > 7a^2 + 10a - 152 = 0
= > 7a^2 + ( 38 - 28 )a - 152 = 0
= > 7a^2 + 38a - 28a - 152 = 0
= > a( 7a + 38 ) - 4( 7a + 38 ) = 0
= > ( a - 4 )( 7a + 38 ) = 0
= > a = 4 or - 38 / 7
Hence the required number is 4.
<u />The greater change is represented by the absolute magnitude
|-34| = 34
|-67| = 67
67 > 34
<u><em>-67 represents the greater change</em></u>
Factor out the common term; 3
(3(x + 1))^2 = 36
Use the Multiplication Distributive Property; (xy)^a = x^ay^a
3^2(x + 1)^2 = 36
Simplify 3^2 to 9
9(x + 1)^2 = 36
Divide both sides by 9
(x + 1)^2 = 36/9
Simplify 36/9 to 4
(x + 1)^2 = 4
Take the square root of both sides
x + 1 = √4
Since 2 * 2 = 4, the square root of 2 is 2
x + 1 = 2
Break down the problem into these 2 equations
x + 1 = 2
x + 1 = -2
Solve the first equation; x + 1 = 2
x = 1
Solve the second equation; x + 1 = -2
x = -3
Collect all solutions;
<u>x = 1, -3</u>
Answer:
i) x points; ii) 2x - 75 = -25; iii) x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
i) Starting points
Let's say you had x points before doubling your score.
(ii) The equation
After doubling score: 2x points
After losing 75 points: (2x - 75) points
At end of game: -25 points
The equation is
2x - 75 = -25
iii) Solution to equation
2x - 75 = -25 Add 75 to each side
2x = 50 Divide each side by 2
x = 25
