3(5j+2)=2(3j-6) do distributed to remove parenthesis 15j+6=6j-3 . Then move all j to left side and the second term to right side 15j-6j=-3-6. Now solve both sides 9j= -9. Now divide both sides by 9 to get j alone to j = -1

How do u do b??????????

horrorfan [7]

the assumption being that the first machine is the one on the left-hand-side and the second is the one on the right-hand-side.

the input goes to the 1st machine and the output of that goes to the 2nd machine.

if she uses and input of 6 on the 2nd one, the result will be 6² - 6 = 30, if we feed that to the 1st one the result will be √( 30 - 5) = √25 = 5, so, simply having the machines swap places will work to get a final output of 5.

clearly we can never get an output of -5 from a square root, however we can from the quadratic one, the 2nd machine/equation.

let's check something, we need a -5 on the 2nd, so

$\bf \underset{final~out put}{\stackrel{y}{-5}}=x^2-6\implies 1=x^2\implies \sqrt{1}=x\implies 1=x$

so if we use a "1" as the output on the first machine, we should be able to find out what input we need, let's do that.

$\bf \underset{first~out put}{\stackrel{y}{1}}=\sqrt{x-5}\implies 1^2=x-5\implies 1=x-5\implies 6=x$

so if we use an input of 6 on the first machine, we should be able to get a -5 as final output from the 2nd machine.

$\bf \stackrel{first~machine}{y=\sqrt{\boxed{6}-5}}\implies y=\sqrt{1}\implies y=1 \\\\\\ \stackrel{second~machine}{y = \boxed{1}^2-6}\implies y = 1-6\implies y = -5$

kow [346]

The answer is $29.99. First, you add $10 to $49.98 which equals 59.98. Next, set up a proportion: x over 59.98 equals 50 over 100. 59.98 times 50 equals 2,999. Now divide 2,999 by 100 and you get your answer.
