Answer: 900
Step-by-step explanation:
12% means 0.12
total amount means X
"of" means multiply
"is" means equal sign
0.12 * X = 108 / Divide both sides by 0.12
X = 108 / 0.12 = 900
Answer:
x = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² = 24 ( multiply both sides by 3 )
2x² = 72 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x² = 36 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ±
← note plus or minus
x = ± 6
solutions are x = - 6, x = + 6
The smallest solution is x = - 6
