Step-by-step explanation:
a=2
b=-7
c=-15
-(-7)+-sq root (-7)²-4(2)(-15) / 2(2)
7 +- sq root 169 / 4
7+- 13 / 4
7+13 / 4, 7-13 / 4
x=5 x=-3/2
<span>Let x=smaller number
Then x+5=larger number
Now we are told the following:
1/5(x+x+5)=x-5 multiply each side by 5
x+x+5=5x-25 subtract 5x and also 5 from both sides
x+x+5-5-5x=5x-5x-25-5 collect like terms
</span><span>-3x=-30 divide both sides by -3
x=10 smaller number
x+5=10+5=15 larger number
CK
1/5(10+15)=10-5
1/5(25)=10-5
5=5 </span>
Answer:
y = 1/2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The line intercepts with the y-axis at -3 and its pattern is going right two and up one.
Area of a rectangle is the product of length times width. Thus, here we need the product of 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches.
One way of doing this follows: 8.5
8.5
----------
93.5 square inches
Rounding up, this comes out to 94 square inches.
Alternatively: 17 187
---- * 11 = ------- = 93.5 square inches; rounded, that's 94.
