Step-by-step explanation:

$x + 2y = 6 \: \: equ1 \\ x + y = 10 \: \: equ2$

From equ2,

$x = 10 - y$

Substituting the value of x in equ1,

$(10 - y) + 2y = 6$

Collect like terms

y=6-10

y = - 4

Substituting the value if y in equ2,

x+y=10

x+(-4)=10

x-4=10

x=10+4

x=14

Therefore, 2x+2y

2(14) + 2(-4)

28 - 8

=20

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation.–x2 + 5x = 3

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Given the equation - x² + 5x = 3, which can be rewritten as:

- x² + 5x - 3 = 0

where a = -1, b = 5 and c = -3.

Quadratic formula:

$\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2\text{ - 4ac}}}{2a}$

Now, we just replace the values of a, b and c on the equation above.

$\frac{-5\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{5^2\text{ - 4(-1)(3)}}}{2(-1)}$

$\frac{5}{2}\text{ }\pm\text{ }\frac{\sqrt[]{13}}{2}$

What is the distance between point A and point B to the nearest tenth?

drek231 [11]

The answer is C. If you use the pythagorean theorem, $a^2+b^2=c^2$ , and connect the two points together at a right angle and pug in the lengths of the two lines to the equation then the answer should be C.
