Nick currently has 7,200 points in his fantasy baseball league, which is 20% points than Adam. How many points does Adam have?

1 answer:

5 0

Heya!!!

Answer to your question:

Let Adam's points be x.

Nick has points =7200=20%of x+x

20/100 *x + x=7200

x/5 +x=7200

6x/5=7200

x= 7200*5/6

x=6000

Adam has 6,000 points.

Hope it helps *_*

Answer:

The factors of $2(x+y)^2-9(x+y)-5$ is ((x+y)-5)(2x+2y+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial

=> $2(x+y)^2-9(x+y)-5$

To Find:

The factors of the polynomial =?

Solution:

Lets assume k = (x+y)

Then $2(x+y)^2-9(x+y)-5$ can be written as $2k^2-9k-5$

Now by using quadratic formula

k = $\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{(b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

where

a= 2

b= -9

c= -5

Substituting the values, we get

k = $\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{(b^2-4ac)}}{2a}$

k = $\frac{-(-9) \pm \sqrt{((-9)^2-4(2)(-5)}}{2(2))}$

k = $\frac{-(-9) \pm \sqrt{(81+40)}}{4}$

k = $\frac{-(-9) \pm \sqrt{(121)}}{4}$

k = $\frac{-(-9) \pm 11}}{4}$

k= $\frac{ 9 \pm 11}{4}$

k = $\frac{20}{4}$ k = $\frac{-2}{4}$

$k_1 =5$ $k_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

$2k^2-9k-5= 2(k-5)(k+\frac{1}{2})$

Solving the RHS we get

$\frac{2}{2}(k-5)(2k+1)$

$(k-5)(2k+1)$

Substituting k = x+y

$((x+y)-5)(2(x+y+1)$

$((x+y)-5)(2x+2y+1)$

3x-y= 17 -x+y= -7 Help please

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

y = -2

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - y = 17

-x + y = -7

here we can find the sum of the two equations

2x = 10

x = 5

now we can just plug in the value of x to find y

-(5) + y = -7

y = -2
