Answer:
x = - 3 ± 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4x² + 24x = 4 ( divide through by 4 )
x² + 6x = 1
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(3)x + 9 = 1 + 9
(x + 3)² = 10 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 3 = ±
( subtract 3 from both sides )
x = - 3 ± 
Answer:
x + y = 162 and x = 2y - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total wins be x
Let the total loss be y
If a baseball team's total wins and losses for one season is 162, this can be expressed as;
x + y = 162 ....... 1
If the number of wins is 6 less than 2 times the number of losses, this is expressed as;
2 times the number of losses = 2y
6 less than 2 times the number of losses = 2y - 6
Now, If the number of wins is 6 less than 2 times the number of losses this is expressed as;
x = 2y - 6 .... 2
Hence the required system of equation are;
x + y = 162 and x = 2y - 6
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2
The answer is
D.1
because even though there is not a number in front of X, we are to assume it is 1.
