If x=3
Just replace the X with 3
So seven minus three equals four
If 3 is X than do 4 times 3 which that makes twelve.

Find the exact solution of the system of equations of x^2+y^2-4x-6y+4=0 and x^2-4x-3y+4=0

gavmur [86]

We can readily know the x^2-4x+4=3y then use it to replace the same function in the first equation which refers to the 3y+y^2-6y=0
y^2-3y=0
y(y-3)=0
y1=0 -----------y2=3

Caroline wants to give 8 friends equal size packets of flower seeds to her friends. She has 1/2 pound of flower seeds. How much

Katena32 [7]

You just have to divide the 1/2 a pound by 8, or equivalently multiply by (1/8):

(1/2)*(1/8) = 1/16 of a pound

The triangles below are similar. What is the length of ? A. 17 cm C. 19 cm B. 18 cm D. 20 cm

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

B. 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they are similar, we can say that segment AC corresponds to segment DF, and segment AB corresponds to segment ED. So, we can set up a proportion.

$\frac{16}{24} =\frac{12}{x}$

$\frac{2}{3} =\frac{12}{x}$

2 * x = 12 * 3

2x = 36

x = 18

So, the length of ED is B. 18 cm.

Hope this helps!
