Answer:

(x, y) = (- 3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x + 2y = - 7 → (1)

4x - y = - 16 → (2)

multiply all terms in (2) by 2

8x - 2y = - 32 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term

(5x + 8x) + (2y - 2y) = (- 7 - 32)

13x = - 39 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = - 3

Substitute x = - 3 into either (1) or (2) and solve for y

substituting in (1) gives

(5 × - 3) + 2y = - 7

- 15 + 2y = - 7 ( add 15 to both sides )

2y = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 4

solution is (- 3, 4 )

Find one value of x that is a solution to the equation:<br>(x^2– 8)^2 + x^2 – 8 = 20<br>x=​
Kipish [7]

Answer:

x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or x = sqrt(3) or x = -sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

-8 + x^2 + (x^2 - 8)^2 = 20

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

x^4 - 15 x^2 + 56 = 20

Subtract 20 from both sides:

x^4 - 15 x^2 + 36 = 0

Substitute y = x^2:

y^2 - 15 y + 36 = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:

(y - 12) (y - 3) = 0

Split into two equations:

y - 12 = 0 or y - 3 = 0

Add 12 to both sides:

y = 12 or y - 3 = 0

Substitute back for y = x^2:

x^2 = 12 or y - 3 = 0

Take the square root of both sides:

x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or y - 3 = 0

Add 3 to both sides:

x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or y = 3

Substitute back for y = x^2:

x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or x^2 = 3

Take the square root of both sides:

Answer: x = 2 sqrt(3) or x = -2 sqrt(3) or x = sqrt(3) or x = -sqrt(3)

What is the probability of rolling a number less than or equal to 2 on a six sided die?
Kruka [31]
The dice only has 6 sides so if you need to roll a 2 or less that only leaves the number one. So it would be 2/6

Sin θ &gt; 0 and tan θ &lt; 0 then:
andriy [413]

Answer:

last choice

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(theta) is positive

tan(theta)=sin(theta)/cos(theta) is negative

If sin(theta) is positive and tan(theta) is negative, then cos(theta) is negative because +/-=-

So we are looking for the quadrant where sine is positive and cosine is negative or when x is negative and y is positive.

This is in quadrant 2 so our angle theta is between 90 and 180 degrees.
