First, isolate x in x-4y=11 because 1 is x's coefficient.
x-4y=11
x=11+4y
Now, substitute 4y+11 for x in 5x-7y=-10.
5x-7y=-10
5(4y+11)-7y=-10
20y+55-7y=-10
Add all coefficients.
13y+55=-10
Isolate y by subtracting 55 from both sides.
13y+55=-10
13y=-10-55
13y=-65
y=-5
Now substitute -5 for y in your first equation.
x=11+4y
x=11+4(-5)
x=11-20
x=-9
Your answer would be (-9,-5).

Solve the following equations for x -11=3-7(x-1)
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

x = 21/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

x - 11 = 3 - 7(x - 1)

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

<u>Distribute -7:</u> x - 11 = 3 - 7x + 7

<u>Combine like terms:</u> x - 11 = 10 - 7x

<u>Add 7x on both sides:</u> 8x - 11 = 10

<u>Add 11 on both sides:</u> 8x = 21

<u>Divide both sides by 8:</u> x = 21/8

SOLVE x^4 − 15x^2 − 16 = 0 <br> What are the roots of the equation?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

roots : 4, -4, i, -i

Step-by-step explanation:

This gets a bit tricky.

We have to substitude x^2 as u in this problem.

Now to rewrite x^4 − 15x^2 − 16 = 0 with u, we get

u^2 - 15u - 16 = 0

( u - 16) (u + 1)

U = 16

U = -1

<em>This is not the end of the problem. </em>

Now we have to substitute x^2 back to u.

x^2 = 16  --> we get the roots 4 and -4

x^2 = -1 --> we get the roots i and -i

tadah!

Determine whether the sequence converges or diverges. If it converges, give the limit.
azamat
The term to term rule is multiplying by 4 and if we continue doing this, we will move towards very large positive numbers.

This sequence, therefore, diverges to infinity
