5x-2x=7x+2x-24
3x = 9x -24
3x - 9x = -24
-6x = -24
x = -24/-6
x = 4

Find the values of a and b such that<br> x^2 + 3x + 4 = (x + a)^2+ b

sesenic [268]

Answer:

$x {}^{2} + 3x + 4 = (x + a) {}^{2} + b \\ x {}^{2} + 3x + 4 = x {}^{2} + 2ax + a {}^{2} + b \\ = x {}^{2} + a {}^{2} + 2ax + b \\ 2a = 3 \\ b = 4 \\ a = \frac{3}{2} \\ b = 4$

3 Which ordered pair is the solution of<br> the system graphed below?

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

C. (5, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ordered pair just means the coordinate or the point at which both of the graphs intersect. On the x-axis, this is at point 5, and on the y-axis, this is at point -3. Since an ordered pair is in the form (x, y), the answer is therefore C.

Between the time Iko woke up and lunchtime, tue temperature rose by 11 degrees. Then by the time he went to bed, the temperature

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

$T_b=(x-3)\textdegree$

Step-by-step explanation:

let x° be temperature when he woke up. Given that the temperature rose by 11° then later dropped by 14°. Also let $T_b$ be temperature at time she went to bed.

-We add the temperature rise and subtract the temperature drop to find temperature at time she goes to bed.

-The temperature relative to time of waking up can be expressed as:

$T_b=x\textdegree\pm\bigtriangleup T\textdegree\\\\T_b=x\textdegree+11\textdegree-14\textdegree\\\\T_b=(x-3)\textdegree$

Hence, the temperature relative to the time Iko woke up is (x-3)°
