Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to define a couple of variables. Let s = the cost of 1 squash and z = the cost of 1 zucchini.
Now lets translate the words into algebra:
"The cost of 5 squash and 2 zucchini is $1.32" ===> 5s + 2z = 1.32
"Three squash and 1 zucchini cost $0.75" ===> 3s + z = 0.75
There are several ways to solve systems of equations. Let's use substitution. We can find what z equals in terms of s by manipulating the second equation:
3s + z = 0.75
-3s -3s
------------ -------------
z = -3s +0.75
Now lets substitute (-3s + 0.75) into the first equation for z, then solve for s:
5s + 2(-3s + 0.75) = 1.32
Can you handle it from here?
(Hint: Once you have solved for s, you can substitute that value back into either of the equations and solve for z.)

Use Pythagorean theorem.
[tex]|ON|^2+|MN|^2=|OM|^2\\\\x^2+x^2=8^2\\\\2x^2=64\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\x^2=32\to x=\sqrt{32}\\\\x=\sqrt{16\cdot2}\\\\x=\sqrt{16}\cdot\sqrt2\\\\\boxed{x=4\sqrt2}
Answer: |MN| = 4√2.
Answer:
x=-20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
-6(x+7)= -4x - 2
First of all, we have to solve brackets
So,
-6x-42=-4x-2
To find the solution of this equation, we have to isolate x on one side of the equation.
Adding 4x on both sides
-6x-42+4x = -2-4x+4x
-2x-42 = -2
Adding 42 on both sides
-2x-42+42 = -2+42
-2x=40
Dividing both sides by -2
-2x/2 = 40/-2
x = -20
The equation has only one solution which is x=-20 ..
