Let that certain number be 'n'
50% (n) = 39
50% ⇒ 0.5
0.5 (n) = 39
Divide both sides by 0.5
0.5n = 39
/0.5 /0.5
n = 78.
So that certain number is actually <em><u>78! :)</u></em>
CROSS CHECK:
50% of 78
0.5 × 78
= 39
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
To generate the equation we set up the factors
(x+3) * (x-1) * (x-2) which equals
x^2 + 2x -3 * (x-2)
x^3 +2x^2 -3x -2x^2 -4x +6 equals
x^3 -3x -4x +6 which equals
x^3 -7x +6
