Answer:

This is because it is a quadratic equation.

It can therefore be solved using either factorization method or completing of squares method.

the factorization method has been worked above.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

For your first answer it is because they are two different ways to solve the equation

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

For Example!

<h2>Solution 1:</h2>

(x-4)² – 28 = 8The 8 is positive making it a different equation (this is like absolute value). (I am assuming you know the answer to the probelm)

<h2>Solution 2:</h2>

(x-4)² – 28 = -8

The 8 could be negative meaning that when you add the 28 to the right side it is -8+28 which will be a negative!

What is the solution to the inequality 10x + 18 < -2

solong [7]

<h3>Answer: x < -2, choice B</h3>

===========================================

Work Shown:

10x + 18 < -2

10x + 18-18 < -2-18 ... subtract 18 from both sides

10x < -20

10x/10 < -20/10 ... divide both sides by 10

x < -2

How to solve this system of equal: x+y+z=1;x^2+y^2+z^2=1

swat32

There are infinitely many solutions.

Algebraically, we can eliminate $z$ and try to solve for $x,y$ :

$x+y+z=1\implies z=1-x-y$

Then

$x^2+y^2+(1-x-y)^2=1$

$\implies x^2+y^2+1-2x+x^2-2y+y^2+2xy=1$

$\implies x^2-x+y^2-y+xy=0$

which is the equation of an ellipse.
