Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 2x + 9 = 2x -5
9 ≠ -5 ; No solution
2) 2x- 1 = x + 3
x = 4; One solution x = 4
3) x + 2 = x + 2
0 = 0; Identity (or all real numbers)
Answer:
1.
-3x + 8y = -5
6x + 2y = -8
Set the equations to a common variable.
-3x + 8y = -5 → 8y = 3x - 5 → y = 3/8x - 5/8
6x + 2y = -8 → 2y = -6x - 8 → y = -3x - 4
Set the equations equal to each other.
3/8x - 5/8 = -3x - 4
Combine like terms.
3x + 3/8x = -4 + 5/8
3.375x = -3.375
Divide by 3.375
x = -1
Plug x back in to find y.
-3x + 8y = -5
-3(-1) + 8y = -5
3 + 8y = -5
8y = -8
y = -1
answer: (-1, -1)
2.
3x + 2y = -16
-3x - 8y = 46
Set the equations to a common variable.
3x + 2y = -16 → 2y = -3x - 16 → y = -3/2x - 8
-3x - 8y = 46 → -8y = 3x + 46 → y = -3/8x - 23/4
Set the equations equal to each other.
-3/2x - 8 = -3/8x - 23/4
Combine like terms.
-9/8x = 9/4
or
-1.125x = 2.25
Divide by -1.125
x = -2
Plug x back in to find y.
3(-2) + 2y = -16
-6 + 2y = -16
2y = -10
y = -5
answer: (-2, -5)
Answer:
£16
the t-shirt increased by 0.25. let's convert that to percentage
therefore it increased by 25%
By using cross multiplication we can write as follows:
125%=£20
100%=£ x
(100×20)/125= £16
Answer:
<em>C.</em> 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Determine which binomial expansion it came from
The first step is to add the powers of he expression in brackets;
Each term of a binomial expansion are always of the form:
Where n = the sum above
Compare to the above general form of binomial expansion
Substitute 6 for n
[Next is to solve for a and b]
<em>From the above expression, the power of (5) is 2</em>
<em>Express 2 as 6 - 4</em>
By direct comparison of
and
We have;
Further comparison gives
[Solving for a]
By direct comparison of
[Solving for b]
By direct comparison of
Substitute values for a, b, n and r in
Solve for
