We have the following expression:
(x- (5/2)) ^ 2 = (13/4)
Let's rewrite the given expression:
x ^ 2 - 5x + 25/4 = (13/4)
x ^ 2 - 5x + 25/4 - 13/4 = 0
x ^ 2 - 5x + 12/4 = 0
x ^ 2 - 5x + 3 = 0
Answer:
the original equation given to Sam could have been:
x ^ 2 - 5x + 3 = 0
Hello Shelbyhall, simply you would multiply 17.50 * 25 because 4 * 25 = 100%. Answer: 437.5 is the other 96% :)
