Factoring this trinomial as the product of two binomials,

we have (x - 9)(x + 2) and set that equal to 0.

So we have (x - 9)(x + 2) = 0.

So either x - 9 = 0 or x + 2 = 0.

Solving for <em>x</em> in each equation, we find that our solution is {9, -2}.

Consider the system of equations:
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

(x, y) = (5, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To <em>eliminate</em> x, you can double the second equation and subtract the first.

... 2(x +4y) -(2x -3y) = 2(9) -(7)

...11y = 11 . . . . . simplify

... y = 1 . . . . . . divide by 11

Using the second equation to find x, we have ...

... x + 4·1 = 9

... x = 5 . . . . . subtract 4

_____

<u>Check</u>

2·5 -3·1 = 10 -3 = 7 . . . . agrees with the first equation

(Since we used the second equation to find x, we know it will check.)

In a board game, you must roll two 6-sided number cubes. You can only start the game if you roll a 3 on at least one of the numb

B is 2 out of 12

c is if you were talking probability then you would have put down one out of 6 because there is one 3 out of 6 sides but i believe i would expect to see two times 34 because it is two time the dice and it gives you the capability to earn three twice as much so you should see it at least 68 times    

HOPE THIS HELPS

If the endpoints of `bar(AB)` have the coordinates A(9, 8) and B(-1, -2), what is the midpoint of `bar(AB)`?
alina1380 [7]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have the following points given in the problem above:

A(9,8)\\ B(-1,-2)

2. To find the midpoint, you must apply the formula that is used for calculate it. This is:

m=(\frac{x1+x2}{2}, \frac{y1+y2}{2} )

Where:

x1=9\\ x2=-1\\ y1=8\\ y2=-2

3. Now, you must substitute these values into the formula for calculate the midpoint, as following:

m=(\frac{9+(-1)}{2} ,\frac{8+(-2)}{2} )\\ m=(4,3)

Therefore, the answer is: m=(4,3)
