One number (a) exceeds another number (b) by 11 so
a = b+11
a + b = 77

Substitute the equation for a into the second equation
(b+11) + b = 77
multiply each side by 1 to remove parentheses
b + 11 + b = 77
Combine like terms
2b + 11 = 77
Isolate the variable
2b = 77-11
Simplify
2b = 66
Divide by 2
b = 33
Now substitute b back into the initial equation for a
a = (33) + 11
a = 44

Check your work by substituting both values into the second equation
44 + 33 = 77
This is true, so 44 and 33 are solutions

Determine the solution set of each equation
maks197457 [2]

A=x1 = -8,x2 =2, B=x1= -5,x2=5, C=y1 = -4, y2 =5, D=y 18 over 5

alternative form

y=3 3over 5, =3.6

And E=x1=0, x2 =2 over 3

Alternative form

x1=0, x2=0.666667.

question A

Solving steps:Solve the quadratic equation

x²+6x-16=0

write 6x as a difference

x2 +8x-2x-16=0

factor out x for the expression

xx(x+8)-2x-16=0

factor out -2 from the expression

xx(x+8)- 2(x+8)=0

factor out x+8 from the expression

(x+8)x(x- 2)=0

when the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is 0

x+8=0

x - 2=0

solve the equation for x

x= -8

x - 2=0

solve the equation for x

x= -8

x =2

the equation has 2 solution

x1 = -8,X2 =2

answer is

x1 = -8,x2 =2

Or

Solving steps:Number of solution

x²+6x-16=0

Determine the number of solution using the

discriminant D =b²- 4ac

D =6²- 4x1x(-16)

simply the expression

D=100

Since D>0, the quadratic equation has 2 real solution

2 real solution

Answer is

2 real solution

Question B

Solving steps:Solve the quadratic equation

x²-25=0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

x²=25

Take the square root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots

x=+5

Write the solutions,one with a +sign and one with a -sign

x= -5

x=5

The equation has 2 solutions

x1= -5,x2=5

the answer is

x1= -5,x2=5

Or

Solving steps:Number of solution

x²-25=0

Determine the number of solutions using the discriminant D=b²- 4ac

D=0²- 4x1x(-25)

Simply the expression

D=100

Since D>0,the quadratic equation has 2real solutions

Answer is

2real solutions

answer of question C is

y1 = -4, y2 =5

Answer of question D is

y 18 over 5

alternative form

y=3 3over 5, =3.6

Answer of question E is

x1=0, x2 =2 over 3

Alternative form

x1=0, x2=0.666667

This makes no sense to me keep getting the wrong answers when i try to figure it out
satela [25.4K]
To solve this problem, you'd want to start by finding the mean of the given numbers. To find the mean, add all the numbers together and divide by how many there are.

Next, you'll see that the question says one of the rents changes from $1130 to $930. So find the mean of all the numbers again, except include $930 in your calculation instead of $1130.

I got $990 as the mean for the given numbers, and $970 as the mean after replacing the $1130 with $930. Subtracting the two means gives you $20. So the mean decreased by $20.

Now for the median, all you need to do is find the median of the given numbers and compare them with the median of the new data. Because there are ten terms, you have to add the middle two numbers and divide by two. $990 + $1020 = 2010. 2010÷2 = $1005 as the first median.

The new rent is 930, so you have to reorder the data so it goes from least to greatest again. 745, 915, 925, 930, 965, 990, 1020, 1040, 1050, 1120. After finding the median again you get 977.5. Subtracting the two medians gives you $27.5 as how much the median decreased. Hope this helps!
