You write the equation like this:
$5x + (-3) = 15$

But if you want to solve it then you do it like this:
$5x + (-3) = 15$
$5x - 3 = 15$
$5x = 18$
$x = 18/5$

What multiplies to give you 15 and adds to give you -8?

Nitella [24]

Answer:

The system of equations is:

x + y = 15

xy = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

solve the first for y and substitute in the second:

y = 15-x

x(15-x) = 15

15x - x� = 15

15x - x� - 15 = 0

-x� + 15x - 15 = 0

x� - 15x + 15 = 0

Which one of the following is considered a quantitative variable?

tatyana61 [14]

Okay so here's the definition of quantitative just in case you ever need it :) Categorical. Categorical variables take on values that are names or labels. The color of a ball (e.g., red, green, blue) or the breed of a dog (e.g., collie, shepherd, terrier) would be examples of categorical variables. And the answer would be A the color of your car because it talks about in the definition of the color of a ball so A would be the correct answer! Please mark brainliest :)
