Answer:
-31
Step-by-step explanation:
a - 8x will change to (-7) - 8(3) = -31
Sqrt(1-3x)=x+3
[sqrt(1-3x)]^2=(x+3)^2
1-3x=(x+3)(x+3)
1-3x=x^2+6x+9
-3x=x^2+6x+8
0=x^2+9x+8
The answers are -1 and -8 BUT, we have to plug them back into the original equation to make sure we don't get a negative under the square root sign.
After doing this, we realize that only -1 works, so the answer is x=-1
Sorry that this took forever to answer. I was thinking of a good way to explain this, and if you need any further explanation, message me:)
Best wishes:)
Divide

by 5. Or multiply it by 1/5.
You get - 56/25 or

pounds per month.
3/4 is equivalent to 75%.
To find the percentage of a fraction, you simply just divide the numerator by the denominator. 3/4=0.75, which is 75%.
