Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x² = 20

x² - 20 = 0

x² -  (√20)² =0

by identity : a² - b² =  ( a - b )( a + b) in this exercice : a = x and b =√20

( x - √20)(x + √20) = 0

x - √20 = 0  or  x + √20 = 0

x = √20 or x =  - √20

but : 20 = 4×5

20 = √(4×5) =√4×√5 = 2√5

Answer:

x = ± 2\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² = 20 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± \sqrt{20} = ± \sqrt{4(5)} = ± 2\sqrt{5}

The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program, administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA), is the income source of last resort for thelow-income aged, blind, and disabled. As the nation's largest income-assistance program, it paid $38 billion in benefits in calendar year 2006 to roughly 7 million recipients per month. BecauseSSI is means tested, administering the program often requires month-to-month, recipient-by-recipient benefit recomputations. An increase in a recipient's income usually triggers a benefit recomputation. Or, an increase in the recipient's financial assets, which may render the recipient ineligible, would also prompt a recomputation. With this crush of ongoing recomputations, it is of little wonder that administrative simplification is a time-honored mantra for program administrators.

5-2=3 so x is equal to 3
-3+10 is equal to 7 so y is equal to 10
With this we can conclude that x=3 and y=10
I hope that helps :)

Elaine is 8 years younger than her brother Tyler. The sum of their ages is 34. What are Elaine's and Tyler's age?
antoniya [11.8K]
<span>Here, Elaine = Tyler + (-8)

</span>⇒ E<span>laine + 0 + Tyler + 0 = 34
</span>⇒ T<span>yler + (-8) + 0 + Tyler + 0 = 34

And, Tyler = [(34 - (0) - (-8)] / 2

Thus, Tyler = 21
And, Elaine = 21 + (-8)
                   =13

</span>∴ T<span>yler = 21 & Elaine = 13
