A family went to a baseball game. They parked the car in a parking lot which charged $10. The cost per ticket was $20. Write a

n equation for the total cost of going to the baseball game, where y is the total cost and x is the total number of people. If the family spent $150, how many people went to the game?

Y= 20x+10

150= 20x+10
Subtract 10
140= 20x
Divide by 20
X= 7 number of people

Just put the coefients in to a matrix

1x-6y-3z=4
-2x+0y-3z=-8
-2x+2y-3z=-14

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-6&-3|4\\-2&0&-3|-8\\-2&2&-3|-14\end{array}\right]$
mulstiply 2nd row by -1 and add to 3rd
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-6&-3|4\\-2&0&-3|-8\\0&2&0|-6\end{array}\right]$
divde last row by 2
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-6&-3|4\\-2&0&-3|-8\\0&1&0|-3\end{array}\right]$
multiply 2rd row by 6 and add to top one
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&-3|-14\\-2&0&-3|-8\\0&1&0|-3\end{array}\right]$
multiply 1st row by -1 and add to 2nd
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&-3|-14\\-3&0&0|6\\0&1&0|-3\end{array}\right]$
divide 2nd row by -3
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&-3|-14\\1&0&0|-2\\0&1&0|-3\end{array}\right]$
mulstiply 2nd row by -1 and add to 1st row
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&-3|-12\\1&0&0|-2\\0&1&0|-3\end{array}\right]$
divide 1st row by -3
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&1|4\\1&0&0|-2\\0&1&0|-3\end{array}\right]$

rerange
$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0|-2\\0&1&0|-3\\0&0&1| 4\end{array}\right]$

Solve 3x2 + 4x = −5.

Alla [95]

Move the -5 over by adding 5 to both sides
3x^2+4x+5=0
must use quadratic formula

for an equation in the form
ax^2+bx+c=0
x= $\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

a=3
b=4
c=5

x= $\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{4^2-4(3)(5)} }{2(3)}$
x= $\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{16-60} }{6}$
x= $\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{-44} }{6}$
x= $\frac{-4+/- 2\sqrt{-11} }{6}$
remember that√-1=i
x= $\frac{-4+/- 2i\sqrt{-11} }{6}$
x= $\frac{-2+/- i\sqrt{-11} }{3}$

x= $\frac{-2+ i\sqrt{-11} }{3}$ or x= $\frac{-2- i\sqrt{-11} }{3}$

Partial fraction decomposition<br> 20x+9/25x^2+20x+4

ozzi

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

$\frac{20x + 9}{25 {x}^{2} + 20x + 4 }$

Let's factor the denomiator first,

the denomaitor is a perfect square so we get

$\frac{20x + 9}{(5x + 2) {}^{2} }$

Now, we must think of two fractions that

$\frac{a}{(5x + 2) {}^{2} } + \frac{b}{5x + 2}$

We use a perfect square term for one fraction, then a linear one for the next, because if we set both of the denomiator to the same factor, we would get a inconsistent system.

So right now, we have

$\frac{a}{(5x + 2) { }^{2} } + \frac{b}{5x + 2} = \frac{20x +9 }{25 {x}^{2} + 20x + 4 }$

$a + (5x + 2)b = 20x + 9$

$5b (x)= 20$

$a + 2b = 9$

$b = 4$

so that means that a is

$a + (2)(4) = 9$

$a + 8 = 9$

$a = 1$

So our equation is

$\frac{1}{(5x + 2) {}^{2} } + \frac{4}{5x + 2}$
