Gavin needs $80 to buy a fish tank. He has saved $8 and plans to work as a babysitter to earn $9 per hour. Which inequality shows the minimum number of hours, n, that Gavin should work as a babysitter to earn enough to buy the fish tank? 8 + 9n ≥ 80, so n ≥ 8 8 + 9n ≤ 80, so n ≤ 8 9n ≥ 80 + 8, so n ≥ 9.8 9n ≤ 80 + 8, so n ≤ 9.8

What two numbers multiply to 54 and add up to 7

k0ka [10]

Xy = 54
x + y = 7

$xy = 54$
$\frac{xy}{x} = \frac{54}{x}$
$y = \frac{54}{x}$

$x + y = 7$
$x + \frac{54}{x} = 7$
$\frac{x^{2}}{x} + \frac{54}{x} = 7$
$\frac{x^{2} + 54}{x} = 7$
$x^{2} + 54 = 7x$
$x^{2} - 7x + 54 = 0$
$x = \frac{-(-7) \± \sqrt{(-7)^{2} - 4(1)(54)}}{2(1)}$
$x = \frac{7 \± \sqrt{49 - 216}}{2}$
$x = \frac{7 \± \sqrt{-167}}{2}$
$x = \frac{7 \± i\sqrt{167}}{2}$
$x = \frac{7 \± 12.9i}{2}$
$x = 3.5 \± 6.45i$
$x = 3.5 + 6.45i$ $or$ $3.5 - 6.45i$

x + y = 7
3.5 + 6.45i + y = 7
- (3.5 + 6.45i) - (3.5 + 6.45i)
y = 3.5 - 6.45i
  (x, y) = (3.5 + 6.45i, (3.5 - 6.45i)

  or

  x + y = 7
3.5 - 6.45i + y = 7
- (3.5 - 6.45i)   - (3.5 - 6.45i)
y = 3.5 + 6.45i
(x, y) = (3.5 - 6.45i, 3.5 + 6.45i)

The two numbers that add up to 7 and can multiply to 54 is 3.5 ± 6.45i.

In a basketball game Anya makes 14 baskets. Some of these baskets were worth 2-points and others were worth 3-points. In total s

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

She made 12 two point basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the number of 2 point basket is x and that of 3 point basket is y.

Based on the question the total numbers of basket is 14, that is x + y = 14 , and the total numbers of points is 30, which helps us with our second equation 2(x) +3(y)=30.

x + y = 14 eqn 1

2(x) +3(y)=30 eqn 2

Using elimination method multiplying eqn 1 by -3 and adding it to equation 2

-3x-3 y = -42 adding to eqn 2 gives

-x= -12

x=12. Which gives the number of the 2 points basket she made .
