If x is the number of chairs in a row
4x + 5 = 2x + 17
2x = 12
x=6
There are 6 chairs in each row. Now you have to find the total
4x+5 = 4(6)+5 = 29
And now double check
2(x) + 17 = 2(6)+17 = 29

A point P lies on the line with equation y= 4-3X. The point P is a distance √34 from the origin. Find the two possible positions

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The two possible positions of point P are:

(3, -5) and (0.6, 5.8)

<h3>How to find the two possible positions of point P?</h3>

We know that point P lies on the line:

y = 4 - 3*x

And that the distance between P and the origin is √34, then if the coordinates of point P are (x, y), we have that:

$\sqrt{34} = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}$

Now, we can replace "y" in the distance equation by the linear equation, and also remove the square roots:

$34 = x^2 + (4 - 3x)^2$

Now we can solve the quadratic equation for x:

$34 = x^2 + 9x^2 + 16 - 24x\\\\10x^2 - 24x - 18 = 0\\\\$

The solutions are:

$x = \frac{24 \pm \sqrt{(-24)^2 - 4*10*(-18)} }{2*10} \\\\x = \frac{24 \pm36}{20}$

So the two solutions are:

x = (24 + 36)/20 = 3

x = (24 - 36)/20 = -0.6

To get the points, we need to evaluate y on these values:

y = 4 - 3*3 = -5 So we have P = (3, -5)

y = 4 - 3*(-0.6) = 2.2 So we have the point (0.6, 5.8)

There are the two possible positions of point P.
