8x + 7y = 39
4x - 14y = -68
(multiply each term in second equation by -2)
8x + 7y = 39
-8x + 28y = 136
(add both equations)
35y = 175
(divide both sides by 35)
y = 5
(substitute value of y in one of the equations)
8x + 7(5) = 39
8x + 35 = 39
8x = 4
x = 1/2
(x, y) = (1/2, 5)
Answer:
x+5 is the factor..
Step-by-step explanation:
xsquare + (8+5)x + 40
or, xsquare +8x+5x+40
or, x(x+8)+5(x+8)
(x+5)(x+8)
Answer:
B (6,12)
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance from point A (6,5) to point B should be 7.
A- (6,5)-> (7,5) is 1 unit right
B- (6,5)-> (6,12) is 7 units up
C- (6,5)-> (6,7) is 2 units up
D- (6,5)-> (12,5) is 6 units up
Answer:
$12,500
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the compound interest formula Accrued Amount = P (1 + r)^n
where Accrued amount = $18000
P = principal; we need to generate it
r = 20% = 0.2
n = 2
Therefore
P = Accrued amount/ (1 + r)^n
= 18000/(1+0.2)^2
= 18000/1.44
= 12,500
hence $12,500 needs to be invested
