The square of 9 less than a number is 3 less than the number. What is the numeber?

12 or 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x, then (x - 9)^2 = x - 3

x^2 - 18x + 81 = x - 3

x^2 - 19x + 84 = 0

(x - 12)(x - 7) = 0

x = 12 or 7

hope it

step-by-step explanation:

x^(1/6) · x^(1/6) · x^(1/6)   ·x^(1/6) = x^(4/6)   since we add the exponents

4/6 can be simplified to 2/3

the simplified form is x^(2/3)

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
