Answer:
x + y = ±15
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out systems of equations
x - y = 1
xy = 56
Step 2: Rearrange 1st equation
x = y + 1
Step 3: Substitution
(y + 1)y = 56
Step 4: Distribute
y² + y = 56
Step 5: Solve for <em>y</em>
y² + y - 56 = 0
(y - 7)(y + 8) = 0
y = -8, 7
Step 6: Plug in <em>y </em>to find <em>x</em>
x - 7 = 1
x = 8
x - (-8) = 1
x + 8 = 1
x = -7
Step 7: Find answer
x + y = ?
8 + 7 = 15
-7 + -8 = -15
So both 15 and -15 could be the answer.
Answer: 2p+1.50=11.50
p = 5.00
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<em>Note: the tip is calculated on top of the total so this figure is a redherring</em>
<u>2 pancakes</u> <em>plus</em> <u>1 fruit cup</u> <em>equals</em> <u>total bill</u>
2p + 1.50 = 11.50
2p + 1.50 = 11.50
<u> - 1.50 </u> <u> - 1.50 </u>
2p = 10.00
<u>÷2 </u> <u> ÷2 </u>
p = 5.00
Answer:
I think answer is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
BD = DA
BE = EC
Now, BD/BE = DA/EC
or, x + 5/2x = 4/3
or, 3x + 15 = 8x
or, 15 = 8x - 3x
or, 15 = 5x
or, 15/5 = x
or, 3 = x
Therefore x = 3 <u>Ans</u>
