26.38

Then divide by the original price

26.38/154.30

.170965651

Multiply by 100% to get the percent decrease

Solve x4 - 11x2 + 18 = 0.

Answer:

x=√2, x=-√2, x= 3 and x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation x^4 - 11x^2+18=0

We can replace x^4 = u^2 and x^2 = u

So, the equation will become

u^2 -11u+18 = 0

Factorizing the above equation:

u^2 -9u-2u+18 =0

u(u-9)-2(u-9)=0

(u-2)(u-9)=0

u=2, u=9

As, u = x^2, Putting back the value:

x^2 =2 , x^2 =9

taking square roots:

√x^2 =√2 ,√x^2=√9

x=±√2 , x = ±3

so, x=√2, x=-√2, x= 3 and x=-3

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

There are 72 inches in 6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

There are 12 inches in 1 foot.

Jada is working on improving her vertical jump.

Currently, her standing reach is 6 feet from the ground.

Now, to find the inches in 6 feet.

Let the inches in 6 feet be $x.$

As given:

In 1 foot there are 12 inches.

So, 1 foot is equivalent to 12 inches.

Thus, 6 feet is equivalent to $x$

Now, to find using cross multiplication method:

$\frac{1}{12} =\frac{6}{x}$

By cross multiplying we get:

$x=72$

So, the inches in 6 feet = 72.

Therefore, there are 72 inches in 6 feet.
