We have
x² + 24x = 17                          (1)

Note that
(x + 12)² = x² + 24x + 144
By adding 144 to the left side of equation (1), it becomes a perfect square.

Therefore
x² + 24x = (x+12)² - 144         (2)

Substitute (2) into (1).
(x + 12)² - 144 = 17 
(x + 12)² = 17 +144
(x + 12)² = 161

Answer:
We added 144 to the left side of equation (1) in order to make it a perfect square.

The ordered pair (3,9) is a solution to the system of
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

(2,7) is not a solution to the given system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equation is:

2x + 3 = y

2x + y = 15

To check whether (2,7) is solution to this system or not, we will put x=2 and y=7 in both equations.

Putting x=2 and y=7 in Eqn 1

2(2) + 3 = 7

4 + 3 = 7

7 = 7

Thus the ordered pair satisfies the equation

Putting x=2 and y=7 in Eqn 2

2(2) + 7 = 15

4 + 7 = 15

11 ≠ 15

The ordered pair do not satisfy the second equation.

Hence,

(2,7) is not a solution to the given system of equations.
