I am going to explain this using the substitution method, considering it appears to be the best in this situation.
We know (from the bottom equation) that y can equal 3x+20. Using this knowledge, we substitute the y in the top equation for 3x+20. Now, we have an equation that looks like this:
3x+20=x^2+2x
Now we need to move x to one side and then do some radicals (square roots).
Subtract the 2x on the right (since it is smaller, negatives = NONONO), which will give you
x+20=x^2
Now, we take the square root of both sides to get
rad(x+20)=x
Now we have to simplify. 20 doesn't have a square root, but 4 goes into 20, and 4 has a square root of 2. This now becomes
2rad(x+5)
This doesn't simplify any further... we have a problem... no way to isolate x as far as my knowledge goes... Sorry, can't help you any further than that, but another person or your teacher might be able to. R.I.P...
Answer:
1.75 inches or 1 3/4inches
Step-by-step explanation:
A map has a scale of ½½inch=20mles. Quinn wants to travel an actual distance of 70miles. What will the length on the map be?
70/20
=7/2
=1/2×7/2
=7/4
=1 3/4 inches
in decimal its 1.75 inches
Answer:
x + 17 = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
im pretty sure you can substitute x with any other letter but ldk
A, C, E
any mathematical expression that then includes an equal sign becomes a sentence or equation
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 4 to the power of 2 is 16.
Then, you subtract: 16x - 7x
Then, what you are going to see is 9x=3x+24
So, you subtract: 9x - 3x
Finally, you will have 6x=24... You divide: 24/6 and the answer is x=4.
