What are the solutions to the following system of equations? y = x2 + 3x − 7 3x − y = −2 (2 points) (3, 11) and (−3, −7) (11, 3)

Minchanka [31]

ANSWER

(3, 11) and (−3, −7)

EXPLANATION

The given system of equations are:

$y = {x}^{2} + 3x - 7$

and

$3x - y = - 2$

or

$y = 3x + 2$

We equate the two equations to obtain,

${x}^{2} + 3x - 7 = 3x + 2$

We rewrite in standard quadratic form to obtain,

${x}^{2} + 3x - 3x - 7 - 2 = 0$

This simplifies to

${x}^{2}- 9= 0$

We solve for x to obtain,

${x}^{2} = 9$

$x = \pm \sqrt{9}$

$x = \pm 3$

$x = 3 \: or \: x = - 3$

When
$x = 3$

$y = 3(3) + 2 = 11$

When x=-3,

$y = 3( - 3) + 2 = - 7$

Therefore the solution for the system is (3, 11) and (−3, −7).

X^2-5x=14 solve for x

elixir [45]

Answer:

x=7, -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-5x=14

x^2-5x-14=0

factor out the trinomial,

(x-7)(x+2)=0

zero property,

x-7=0, x+2=0,

x=0+7=7,

x=0-2=-2

Please help! posted picture of question

o-na [289]

C. 5x - 2y = 16 is your answer

plug in each point into the equation.

(2, -3)

x = 2, y = -3

5(2) - 2(-3) = 16
10 + 6 = 16
16 = 16 (True)

(4,2)

x = 4, y = 2

5(4) - 2(2) = 16
20 - 4 = 16
16 = 16 (True)

hope this helps

Paula and Kawai shared $312 in the ratio of 6:7. How much money<br> did each person get?

Maslowich

Answer:

Paula get $\$144$ and Kawai get $\$168$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Paula and Kawai shared $\$312$ in the ratio of $6:7$ .

To find: How much money did each person get?

Solution:

We have,

Paula and Kawai shared $\$312$ in the ratio of $6:7$ .

So, let Paula get $\$6x$ and Kawai get $\$7x$ .

As per the question,

$6x+7x=312$

$\implies13x=312$

$\implies x=\frac{312}{13} =24$

Therefore, Paula get $6\times 24=\$144$ , and Kawai get $7\times 24=\$168$ .

Hence, Paula get $\$144$ and Kawai get $\$168$ .
