So, we write a fraction, which would be 12/100. Then we would do 12/100 = x/550. You could divide 100 by 550, which is 5.5. Then we would multiply 5.5 by 12, which is 66. So 66 people would be wearing glasses.

Solve by substitution. Show each step of your work.
zaharov [31]

5x + y = 15

y = -5x + 15

Substituting y= -5x+15 from first equation into second equation:

3x + 2y = 16

3x + 2·(-5x + 15) = 16

3x - 10x + 30 = 16

-7x + 30 = 16

7x = 30 - 16 = 14

x = 2

Substituting x=2 into the first equation:

5x + y = 15

5(2) + y = 15

10 + y = 15

y = 15 - 10

y = 5

So your final answers are x=2 and y=5.

I need to do this problem by completing the square . help please
sukhopar [10]

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
