Answer:a = - 2

b = - 3

c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a + 5b - c = - 20 - - - - - - - - - 1

4a - 5b + 4c = 19 - - - - - - - - - 2

-a - 5b - 5c = 2 - - - - - - - - - - - 3

Adding equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes

- 6c = - 18

c = - 18/ - 6 = 3

Multiplying equation 2 by 1 and equation 3 by 4, it becomes

4a - 5b + 4c = 19

-4a - 20b - 20c = 8

Adding both equations, it becomes

- 25b - 16c = 27

- 25b = 27 + 16c = 27 + 16 × 3

- 25b = 75

b = 75/- 25 = - 3

Substituting b = - 3 and c = 3 into equation 1, it becomes

a + 5 × - 3 - 3 = - 20

a - 15 - 3 = - 20

a - 18 = - 20

a = - 20 + 18 = - 2

Please help me :)) algebra 2! what are the real roots?

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

$3(x-4)^\frac{4}{3}+16=64$

First, let's subtract 16 from both sides:

$3(x-4)^\frac{4}{3}=48$

Now, let's divide both sides by 3:

$(x-4)^\frac{4}{3}=16$

Remember that with fractional exponents, we can move the denominator into the root position. Therefore:

$(\sqrt[3]{x-4})^4=16$

Let's take the fourth root of both sides. Since we're taking an even root, make sure to have the plus-minus symbol!

$\sqrt[3]{x-4} =\pm 2$

Cube both sides. Since we're cubing, the plus-minus stays.

$x-4=\pm 8$

Add 4 to both sides.

$x=\pm 8+4$

Calculator:

$x=8+4\text{ or } x=-8+4\\x=12\text{ or } x=-4$

So, our answer is A.

And we're done!
