(x + 5)(x - 7)
x(x - 7) + 5(x - 7)
x(x) - x(7) + 5(x) - 5(7)
x² - 7x + 5x - 35
x² - 2x - 35
Answer:
x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
rearrange terms
distribute
subtract the numbers
subtract 1 from both sides of the equation
simplify
We can solve this by setting up 2 equations. We can use any letters like. For now, I'll use x and y.
So now we know that x - y = 0.7 and x + y = 1.
Now we can eliminate one of the letters by adding or subtracting one equation from the other. I am going to eliminate y by adding the two together (the y and the -y cancel).
This gives us 2x = 1.7, and so x = 1.7 ÷ 2 = 0.85
Finally, we can substitute x for 0.85 back into one of the original equations to figure out what y equals. I'm going to use x + y = 1.
So now we have 0.85 + y = 1, so y = 1 - 0.85 = 0.15
The numbers, therefore, are 0.85 and 0.15 (you can check by using the other equation).
Hope this helps!
direct proportion y=kx , k is constant and k does not equal to 0.
17.5=k(21)
k=5/6
when x =39
y=5/6 ×39
y=32.5
