Answer:

Part 9) The number of items on Emily's grocery list is 5 and the number of items on Bobby's grocery list is 13

Part 10) The height of the taller bookshelf is 4 feet and the height of the shorter bookshelf is 1 foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 9)

Let

x ----> number of items on Emily's grocery list

x ----> number of items on Bobby's grocery list

we know that

y=2x+3 ----> equation A

x=y-8 ----> equation B

Solve by substitution

Substitute equation A in equation B

x=(2x+3)-8

solve for x

x=2x-5

2x-x=5

x=5

Find the value of y

y=2(5)+3=13

therefore

The number of items on Emily's grocery list is 5 and the number of items on Bobby's grocery list is 13

Part 10)

Let

x ----> the height of the taller bookshelf in feet

y ----> the height of the shorter bookshelf in feet

we have

x=5y-1 ----> equation A

Remember that

1\ ft=12\ in

To convert inches to feet divide by 12

so

60\ in=60/12=5\ ft

x+y=5 ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation A in equation B

(5y-1)+y=5

solve for y

5y+y=5+1

6y=6

y=1\ ft

Find the value of x

x=5(1)-1=4\ ft

therefore

The height of the taller bookshelf is 4 feet and the height of the shorter bookshelf is 1 foot

What are the roots of the equation x2 - 5x + 6 = 0?
Alenkasestr [34]

The answer is

B. -2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation :

Given the expression

x²- 5x + 6 = 0

Firstly we need to find two numbers that when multiplied will give us the constant term 6, and when added will give us the 2nd term 5

These numbers are 3 and 2

Substituting 2x +3x for 5x

x²- (2x+3x)+ 6 = 0

x²-2x-3x+6=0

(x²-2x)-(3x+6)=0

Factoring we have

x(x-2)-3(x-2)=0

x-3=0, x-2=0

x=3, x= 2
