X=2+5y
x-y=30

basically, all you're doing here is solving a system of equations. use the second equation to find out what x or y means. i'm going to solve it for x.

this is the new equation : x=30+y

now i plug this equation into the first one.

30+y=2+5y

30=2+5y-y
30=2+4y
28=4y
y=7

now that you know what y is, take that second equation we did in the beginning and plug in y.

x-7=30

solve for x

x=37

the two integers are 37 and 7.

Solve the equation 2 sec² x = 3 - tan x for the domain 0° ≤ x ≤ 360°

vodka [1.7K]

$2 \sec^2 x = 3- \tan x \\\\\implies 2(1 +\tan^2 x) = 3- \tan x \\\\\implies 2 + 2 \tan^2 x +\tan x -3 =0\\\\\implies 2 \tan^2 x + \tan x -1 =0\\\\\implies 2u^2 + u -1 =0~~~ ;[\text{set} \tan x = u]\\\\\implies u = \dfrac{-1\pm \sqrt{1-4\cdot 2 \cdot (-1)}}{2(2)}\\\\\implies u =\dfrac{-1 \pm\sqrt{9}}{4}\\\\\implies u = \dfrac{-1 \pm 3}{4}\\\\\implies u = \dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac 12~~ \text{or} ~~u =\dfrac{-4}{4} =-1\\\\$

$\implies \tan x = \dfrac 12 ~~ \text{or} ~~ \tan x =-1~~~ ;[\text{Substitute back u =tan x}]\\\\\text{Now,}~ \\\\\tan x = -1,\\\\\implies x = n\pi - \dfrac{\pi}4\\\\\\\text{For interval,}~ [0,2\pi) \\\\x = \dfrac{3\pi}4, \dfrac{7\pi}4\\\\\text{In degrees,}~ x = 135^{\circ}, x =315^{\circ}\\\\\tan x = \dfrac 12\\\\\implies x = n\pi + \tan^{-1} \left(\dfrac 12 \right)\\\\\text{For interval} ~[0,2\pi),\\\\$

$x=\tan^{-1} \left(\dfrac 12 \right), \left[\pi +\tan^{-1} \left( \dfrac 12 \right)\right]\\\\\text{in degrees,} ~~x=\tan^{-1} \left(\dfrac 12 \right), \left[180^{\circ} +\tan^{-1} \left( \dfrac 12 \right)\right]\\\\\\\\\text{Combine all solutions:}\\\\x=\dfrac{3\pi}4, \dfrac{7\pi}4, \tan^{-1} \left(\dfrac 12 \right), \left[\pi +\tan^{-1} \left( \dfrac 12 \right)\right]\\\\\\$

$\text{In degrees,}~ x = 135^{\circ},~315^{\circ},~\tan^{-1} \left(\dfrac 12 \right), \left[180^{\circ} +\tan^{-1} \left( \dfrac 12 \right)\right]$

A brother and sister share out their collection of 5000 stamps in the

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

1875

Step-by-step explanation:

After sharing in the ratio 5:3, the brother has

5000/(5+3) x 5 = 3125

Next, he shares with his friend in the ratio 3:1:1, thus

3125/(3+1+1) x 3 = 1875

Factor Polynomial 3y^2+y-14

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Factored Form: ( y - 2 )( 3y + 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let us first write down the problem at hand: 3y^2 + y - 14

2. Now let us break this expression into groups:

3y^2 - 6y + 7y - 14 ⇒ ( 3y^2 - 6y )( 7y - 14 )

3. Factor 3y from 3y^2 - 6y:

3y^2 - 6y ⇒ 3y( y - 2 )

4. Factor 7 from 7y - 14:

7y - 14 ⇒ 7( y - 2 )

5. Substitute Step #3, 4 ⇒ Step #2:

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

6. Factor common term y - 2:

Answer: ( y - 2 )( 3y + 7 )
