X + 0.5y = 3
x^2 - y = 15

from the first equation:-
0.5y = 3 - x
y = 6 - 2x

Substitute for y in second equation:-
x^2 - (6 - 2x) = 15
x^2 + 2x - 21 = 0
x = [-2 +/- sqrt((4 - 4*-21)] / 2
= 3.6904 , -5.6904

Plugging in these into first equation we get

3.6904 + 0.5y = 3 so y = 2(3-3.6904) = -1.3808
-5.6904 + 0.5y = 3 so y = 2(3 + 5.6904) = 17.3808

Solution is x = 3.690, y = -1.381 ; x = -5.690, y = 17.38 ( to 4 s.f's)

2x + 6 = 20 Please answer quickly options for x are 6,7,5,8 they are one of those numbers

BaLLatris [955]

Answer: X = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Or, you don't have to plug any of those in and solve for x

subtract 6 from both sides

2x = 14

divide 14 by 2x

x=7

4. Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-14$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we need to know:

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)
Parallel lines always have the same slope

1) Determine the slope (m)

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-10$

In the given equation, $\frac{5}{2}$ is in the place of m, making it the slope. Because parallel lines have the same slope, the line we're currently solving for therefore has a slope of $\frac{5}{2}$ . Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :

$y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

$y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$

Plug in the given point (-6,-29) and solve for b

$-29=\frac{5}{2}(-6)+b$

Simplify -6 and 2

$-29=\frac{5}{1}(-3)+b\\-29=(5)}(-3)+b\\-29=-15+b$

Add 15 to both sides to isolate b

$-29+15=-15+b+15\\-14=b$

Therefore, the y-intercept is -14. Plug this back into $y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$ :

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-14$

I hope this helps!

F(x)=9x^2 g(x)= sqrt 12-x/3 (f o g)(-4)

Slav-nsk [51]

$f(x)=9x^2 \\ g(x)=\frac{\sqrt{12-x}}{3} \\$ So,first step is to write $(fog)(-4)) =f[g(-4)] \\$

Now we start from inner paranthesis ,we need to first find value of $g(-4) =\frac{\sqrt{12-(-4)}}{3}\\ =\frac{\sqrt{12+4}}{3}\\
=\frac{\sqrt{16}}{3}\\
=\frac{4}{3}\\
(fog)(-4)) =f[g(-4)] =f(\frac{4}{3}) =9(4/3)^{2} =9*(16/9) =144/9 =16$
