Answer:
the roots are n = 1 + √15 and n = 1 - √15
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case I would immediately rewrite n² - 2n - 5 = 10 as
n² - 2n = 10 + 5 = 15.
To complete the square: Identify the coefficient of n (it is -2). Halve that, obtaining -1, square this result, and then add the outcome (1) to and subtract the outcome (1) to n² - 2n:
n² - 2n <em>+ 1 - 1 </em> = 15
Next, rewrite n² - 2n + 1 as the square of a binomial:
(n - 1)² = 15
Finally, take the square root of both sides:
n - 1 = ±√15
so that the roots are n = 1 + √15 and n = 1 - √15
Answer:
The relationship ship equation:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'x' be the grams of flour Priya bought
Let Clare bought 'y' grams of flour
As Clare bought 3/8 more than that.
so
y = x + 3/8x
Thus, the relationship ship equation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given system of equations:
To solve by the method of substitution, substitute the first equation into the second equation and rearrange so that the equation equals zero:
Factor the quadratic:
Apply the <u>zero-product property</u> and solve for x:
Substitute the found values of x into the <u>second equation</u> and solve for y:
Therefore, the solutions are:
X= cost per cherry pie
y= cost per pumpkin pie
NICOLE
1x + 9y= $60
LISA
11x + 4y= $90
STEP 1
multiply Nicole's equation by -11
-11(1x + 9y)= -11($60)
multiply -11 by all terms
(-11 * x) + (-11 * 9y)= (-11 * 60)
-11x - 99y= -660
STEP 2
add Nicole's new equation from step 1 to Lisa's equation to solve for y (using the elimination method)
-11x - 99y= -660
11x + 4y= 90
the x terms "cancel out"
-95y= -570
divide both sides by -95
y= $6 per pumpkin pie
STEP 3
substitute y value into either original equation to solve for x
x + 9y= $60
x + 9(6)= 60
x + 54= 60
subtract 54 from both sides
x= $6 per cherry pie
CHECK
11x + 4y= $90
11(6) + 4(6)= 90
66 + 24= 90
90= 90
ANSWER: Each cherry pie costs $6 and each pumpkin pie costs $6.
Hope this helps! :)
