By applying algebraic handling on the two equations, we find the following three <em>solution</em> pairs: x₁ ≈ 5.693 ,y₁ ≈ 10.693; x₂ ≈ 1.430, y₂ ≈ 6.430; x₃ ≈ - 0.737, y₃ ≈ 4.263.
<h3>How to solve a system of equations</h3>
In this question we have a system formed by a <em>linear</em> equation and a <em>non-linear</em> equation, both with no <em>trascendent</em> elements and whose solution can be found easily by algebraic handling:
x - y = 5 (1)
x² · y = 5 · x + 6 (2)
By (1):
y = x + 5
By substituting on (2):
x² · (x + 5) = 5 · x + 6
x³ + 5 · x² - 5 · x - 6 = 0
(x + 5.693) · (x - 1.430) · (x + 0.737) = 0
There are three solutions: x₁ ≈ 5.693, x₂ ≈ 1.430, x₃ ≈ - 0.737
And the y-values are found by evaluating on (1):
y = x + 5
x₁ ≈ 5.693
y₁ ≈ 10.693
x₂ ≈ 1.430
y₂ ≈ 6.430
x₃ ≈ - 0.737
y₃ ≈ 4.263
By applying algebraic handling on the two equations, we find the following three <em>solution</em> pairs: x₁ ≈ 5.693 ,y₁ ≈ 10.693; x₂ ≈ 1.430, y₂ ≈ 6.430; x₃ ≈ - 0.737, y₃ ≈ 4.263.

56/8 = 7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of apples that Nicole bought was 6 pounds.
Each pound of apple cost $1.50
This means that the total cost of the 6 pounds of apple that Nicole bought would be
6 × 1.5 = $9
The store had a discount of $2 off her total purchase. This means that the amount that was paid is
9 - 2 = $7
If Nicole and her friend then divided the cost of the purchase evenly, let x represent the amount that each of them would pay. Therefore, the expression that can be used to determine how much Nicole and her friend each paid for the apples would be
x = 7/2
