Aschool replaced 20% of its computers with new ones what is the total number of computers in the school if 55 computers were replaced

There were 275 computers

Step-by-step explanation:

Computers replaced = total computers * percent replaced

What do we know?

The percent replaced is 20  = .2

55 computers were replaced.

Substitute this in

55 = total computers * .2

Divide each side by .2

55/.2 = total computers *.2 /.2

275 = total computers

There were 275 computers

x =±sqrt(1/3)

step-by-step explanation:

x+4/6x=1/x

multiply each side by 6x to get rid of the fractions

6x*(x+4/6x)=1/x*6x

distribute

6x^2 +4 = 6

subtract 4 from each side

6x^2 +4-4 = 6-4

6x^2 =2

divide by 6

6x^2/6 = 2/6

x^2 = 1/3

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(1/3)

x =±sqrt(1/3)
