Answer:

1/2 X + X -15 + 1/2 X + 100 + X -25 = 540

1/2x + x + 1/2x + x -15 + 100 -25 = 540

3 x + 60 = 540

3x + 60 - 60 = 540 - 60

3/3x = 480/3

x = 160

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 X + X -15 + 1/2 X + 100 + X -25 = 540

1/2x + x + 1/2x + x -15 + 100 -25 = 540

3 x + 60 = 540

3x + 60 - 60 = 540 - 60

3/3x = 480/3

x = 160

Find the value of x² - x+1 when x=√3 -1, in the form a+b√3 where a and b are integers

lidiya [134]

Answer:

$6-3\sqrt{3}$

If you compare this to $a+b\sqrt{3}$ , then $a=6$ and $b=-3$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given $x=\sqrt{3}-1$ and we are asked to find the value of $x^2-x+1$ .

So we will need to find $x^2$ .

$x=\sqrt{3}-1$

Square both sides:

$x^2=(\sqrt{3}-1)^2$

Expand using identity: $(x-a)^2=x^2-2ax+a^2$ .

$x^2=(\sqrt{3})^2-2(\sqrt{3})(1)+1^2$

$x^2=3-2\sqrt{3}+1$

$x^2=4-2\sqrt{3}$

Let's go back to the full $x^2-x+1$ .

$x^2-x+1$

$(4-2\sqrt{3})-(\sqrt{3}-1)+1$

$4-2\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{3}+1+1$

$6-3\sqrt{3}$

If you compare this to $a+b\sqrt{3}$ , then $a=6$ and $b=-3$ .

PLEASE HELP LOTS OF POINTS!!!!!!!! TWO QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!

zubka84 [21]

Answer: Number one would be 3x+2y+-14 and x+y=-4, second one is x=-3, y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one is solved by inputting the x and y in each one and finding which one comes out true, the second on is solved by substitution. to find x you would subtract x in the first equation and make it y=4-x then input that equation in the y in the second equation.

For the following pairs of equations explain why the equations are NOT equivalent.

Serga [27]

If you were to make both x's equivalent, you'd have to multiply the first equation by 2 to get rid of the coefficient, 1/2. However, you'd have to multiply 2 onto -8 as well, therefore the equation would turn into x - 16 = 18. That is not equivalent to x - 8 = 18.
