Answer:
(-10, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do it algebraically (substitution or elimination) or graphically. I will be using substitution to solve this.
Step 1: Rewrite 2nd equation
2y = 6
y = 3
Step 2: Plug in <em>y</em>
7x + 8(3) = -46
7x + 24 = -46
7x = -70
x = -10
Put it in coordinates and we have our final answer!
Answer: no
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- x = 0 or 1
- x = ±i/4
- x = -5 (twice)
Step-by-step explanation:
Factoring is aided by having the equations in standard form. The first step in each case is to put the equations in that form. The zero product property tells you that a product is zero when a factor is zero. The solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero.
1. x^2 -x = 0
x(x -1) = 0 . . . . . x = 0 or 1
__
2. 16x^2 +1 = 0
This is the "difference of squares" ...
(4x)^2 - (i)^2 = 0
(4x -i)(4x +i) = 0 . . . . . x = -i/4 or i/4 (zeros are complex)
__
3. x^2 +10x +25 = 0
(x +5)(x +5) = 0 . . . . . x = -5 with multiplicity 2
