Answer:

-35,35,0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's organise our information :

  • x+xy²=250y
  • x-xy²= -240y

Now let's add them together :

  • x+xy²+x-xy²=250y-240y
  • 2x=10y
  • x=5y ⇒ y= x/5

Let's replace y by x/5 in the first equation :

  • x+x*(x/5)²=250*(x/5)
  • x+ (x∧3)/25 = 50x
  • 49x-(x∧3)/25=0
  • x(49-(x²/25))=0
  • x=0 or 49-(x²/25)=0
  • x=0 or 49= x²/25
  • x=0 or x²=1225
  • x=0 or  x= \sqrt{1225} or x= -\sqrt{1225\\}
  • x=0 or x=35 or x= -35

so x=[0,35,(-35)]

Answer: x = {0, 35, -35}

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

Add the two equations together to eliminate the xy² term.

     x + xy² = 250y

+  <u>  x - xy² </u>= <u>-240y</u>

    2x        =  10y

  <u> ÷2        </u>    <u> ÷2   </u>

      x        =  5y

 

Substitute x = 5y into either of the equations to solve for "y".

5y + 5y(y²) = 250y

5y + 5y³ = 250y

5y³ + 5y - 250y = 0

5y³ - 245y = 0

5y(y² - 49) = 0

5y = 0     y² - 49 = 0

y = 0       y = ±7

Substitute y = 0, y = 7, and y = -7 into either of the equations to solve for "x".

x + x(0)² = 250(0)          x + x(7)² = 250(7)        x + x(-7)² = 250(-7)

x +    0    =   0                x + 49x = 1750            x + 49x = -1750

        x    =    0                      50x = 1750               50x = -1750

                                                x = 35                       x = -35

kolezko [41]

Answer:

the answer is c)

Step-by-step explanation:

the reason is 5*6 would be 30 and if you were to add 3 more zero's, it would be 3000 and 1/10 of 600 is 60 so 60*2 is 120 which is where you het the 120 so you add it up and it's 3,120

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
For this case what we should do is write correctly the given equation:
 D ^ 2 = W ^ 2 + H ^ 2
 We substitute the values:
 D = 17inch
 H = 9inch
 Substituting:
 17 ^ 2 = W ^ 2 + 9 ^ 2
 We clear the value of W:
 W = root (17 ^ 2 - 9 ^ 2)
 W = 14.4 inch
 Answer:
 
The width of the laptop screen is:
 
D. W = 14.4 inch
