Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
75% of x = 18
75/100 * x = 18 (x = total number of students)
solving
x = 24
total number of students = 24
Checking:
75/100 * 24 = 18
A) x * y = 42 (or x = 42/y)
B) x + y = 23
B) 42/y + y = 23
42 + y^2 = 23y
y^2 -23y + 42 = 0
The numbers are 21 and 2
Answer:
18 and 20, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Math reasoning 1:
Set the first number as x and the other one as x+2 because it is a consecutive even number.
x+x+2=38
2x=36
x=18
18+2=20
The 2 consecutive numbers are 18 and 20
Problem solving 1:
Write out equation first, set the unknown number as x
5+x=9
x=4
Answer:
x= -3 or 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x²+5x-12 =0
3x²+9x-4x-12=0
3x(x+3) -4(x+3) =0
(3x-4)(x+3)=0
x=-3 or 4/3
