Answer:

x=25

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=100 (y being number of 8¢ stamps)

12x+ 8y = 900

-----------------------------------

y = 100-x

12x + 8y = 900

----------------------------------------

12x + 8(100-x) = 900

12x + 800 - 8x = 900

12x - 8x = 900 - 800

4x = 100

x=25

The solutions of x^2= 16x-28
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Simplifying

x2 = 16x + -28

Reorder the terms:

x2 = -28 + 16x

Solving

x2 = -28 + 16x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:

28 + -16x + x2 = -28 + 16x + 28 + -16x

Reorder the terms:

28 + -16x + x2 = -28 + 28 + 16x + -16x

Combine like terms: -28 + 28 = 0

28 + -16x + x2 = 0 + 16x + -16x

28 + -16x + x2 = 16x + -16x

Combine like terms: 16x + -16x = 0

28 + -16x + x2 = 0

Factor a trinomial.

(2 + -1x)(14 + -1x) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(2 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

2 + -1x = 0

Solving

2 + -1x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2' to each side of the equation.

2 + -2 + -1x = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0

0 + -1x = 0 + -2

-1x = 0 + -2

Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2

-1x = -2

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = 2

Simplifying

x = 2

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(14 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying

14 + -1x = 0

Solving

14 + -1x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-14' to each side of the equation.

14 + -14 + -1x = 0 + -14

Combine like terms: 14 + -14 = 0

0 + -1x = 0 + -14

-1x = 0 + -14

Combine like terms: 0 + -14 = -14

-1x = -14

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = 14

Simplifying

x = 14

Solution

x = {2, 14}
