Answer:

$27

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion where x is the amount of money he saved:

\frac{12}{9} = \frac{36}{x}

Cross multiply and solve for x:

12x = 324

x = 27

So, he saved $27

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below? Check all that apply. 4x2 + 4x + 1 = 9​
Vilka [71]

Answer:

4x^2 + 4x + 1=9

4x^2 + 4x - 8=0

Dividing both sides by 4

x^2 + x -2=0

It can be written as

x^2 + 2x - x - 2=0

x(x+2) -1(x+2)=0

taking (x+2) as common on LHS

Then, (x+2)(x-1)=0

Now first equate x+2=0  ie x=-2

then                 x-1=0 ie x=1

Therefore, x has two values(roots)

that is -2,1

What is the difference of the fractions? Use the number line to help find the answer
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

-7/10

Explanation:

Given the expression

\frac{1}{2}-1\frac{1}{5}

We can rewrite the expression as:

\frac{1}{2}-\frac{6}{5}=\frac{5}{10}-\frac{12}{10}

The number line showing the location of the two numbers is attached below. Therefore:

\frac{5}{10}-\frac{12}{10}=-\frac{7}{10}

Please help.. (This is meant to be infinite, so I can't use a calculator)
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Let x = √20 + √20 .....

x

→ Square both sides

x² = 20 + √20 +√20 + √20

→ Replace √20 +√20 + √20 with x

x² = 20 + x

→ Move everything to the left hand side

x² - 20 - x = 0

→ Factorise

( x + 4 ) ( x - 5 )

→ Solve

x = -4 , 5

→ Discard negative result

x = 5
