Solve the system using elimination. x − 4y = 4 3x − 4y = −12

1 answer:

3 0

Common in both: -4y
Subtract the second from the first.
x-4y=4
3x-4y=-12
-2x=16
x=-8
Substitute in to find y.
-8-4y=4
-4y=12
y=-3

Option D: Two irrational solutions

Explanation:

The equation is $17+3 x^{2}=6 x$

Subtracting 6x from both sides, we have,

$3x^{2} -6x+17=0$

Solving the equation using quadratic formula,

$x=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36-4(3)(17)}}{2(3)}$

Simplifying the expression, we get,

$\begin{aligned}x &=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36-204}}{6} \\&=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{-168}}{6} \\&=\frac{6 \pm 2 i \sqrt{42}}{6}\end{aligned}$

Taking out the common terms and simplifying, we have,

$\begin{aligned}x &=\frac{2(3 \pm i \sqrt{42})}{6} \\&=\frac{(3 \pm i \sqrt{42})}{3}\end{aligned}$

Dividing by 3, we get,

$x=1+i \sqrt{\frac{14}{3}}, x=1-i \sqrt{\frac{14}{3}}$

Hence, the equation has two irrational solutions.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical scale gives us the frequency or the number of pets under each category . From the diagram;

The number of Dogs is 11 while there is only 1 horse

The difference between this numbers will be the solution to the question posed;

11 - 1 = 10

Therefore, 10 more dogs are pets than horses

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: .34 ≤ x ≤ .81

Step-by-step explanation:

An inequality is writted like __ ≤ x ≤ ___

Since the humming bird can fly between .34 and .81 we use the the less than or equal to sign because it can fly max .81 mpm or less than that. with a minimum speed of .34 mpm.
