Answer:

use the combination method

Step-by-step explanation:

     x - 2y = -13

+ 5 x + 2y = -17


since 2y is in both equations you cancel them out.


5x + x = 6x    

-2y + 2y = 0

-13 + (-17) = -30

put it back into the equation

6x + 0 = -30 or 6x = -30

6x ÷ 6 = x

-30 ÷ 6 = -5

x = -5

then plug into the equation x - 2y = -13 and 5x + 2y = -17


-5 - 2y = -13

-13 + 5 = -8

-2y = -8

y = 4


x = -5 and y = 4

if the sum of two numbers is four and the sum of their squares minus three times their product is 76, find the numbers
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Numbers =(6,-2 )

Step-by step explanation:

Given

the sum of two numbers is four and the sum of their squares minus three times their product is 76,

Let the first term =X

Second term will be=4-x

So

X^2+(4-x)^2-3x(4-x)=76

x^2+16+x^2-8x-12x+3x^2=76

5x^2-20x+16=76

5x^2-20x-60=0

5(x^2-4x-12)=0

So x^2-4x-12=0

x^2-(6-2)x-12=0

x^2-6x+2x-12=0

X(x-6)+2(x-6)=0

(X-6)(X+2)=0

X=6,-2

Let X=6 and -2 then numbers will be 6 and (4-6)=-2

Simply the expression given below (3x^3+4x^2+4x-12)+(-5x^3+9x^2-9x+20)
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

1. Simplify: (4x2 - 2x) - (-5x2 - 8x).

Solution:

(4x2 - 2x) - (-5x2 - 8x)

= 4x2 - 2x + 5x2 + 8x.

= 4x2 + 5x2 - 2x + 8x.

= 9x2 + 6x.

= 3x(3x + 2).

Answer: 3x(3x + 2)

Help please asap aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
wel

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your exponential formula is in the form y = ab^x. In this form, the coefficient 'a' is the initial value, the y-intercept, the value when x=0. The value 'b' is the growth factor, which is 1 more than the growth rate per increment of x. This problem is asking for the growth rate to be expressed as a percentage.

__

Given p(x) = 78500(1.02^x), we can compare to the exponential function form to see that ...

  • a = 78,500
  • b = 1.02 = 1 +0.02 = 1 +2%

The value of x is zero in the year 2000, so the population that year is ...

  p(0) = a = 78,500

The increase per year is the value of 'b' with 1 subtracted:

  growth rate = 2% per year
