Answer:
4/5 of the cattle is left
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
A farmer sells 2/5 of his cattle
Let "x" be the total number of cattle
Then,
sold = 2 / 5 x
Then,
Remaining = x - 2x / 5
remaining = 3x / 5
He gives 1/3 of the remainder to his son
son = 1 / 3 × 3x / 5
son = x / 5
Then,
Remaining = 3x / 5 - x / 5
Remaining = 4x / 5
Hope this answer helps you :)
Have a great day

C - (x-3)^2=36
If we expand (x-3)^2=36:
(x-3)(x-3)=36
x^2-3x-3x+9=36
x^2-6x+9=36
Then subtract 36
x^2-6x-27=0
