Answer:

x = 26 , y = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = 144 (1)

2x + 5y = 217 (2)

3x + 2y = 144

(divide the equation by 3)

x + (2/3)y = 48

x = 48 - (2/3)y

Plug into (2)

2[48 - (2/3)y] + 5y = 217

96 - (4/3)y + 5y = 217

11y/3 = 217 - 96

11y/3 = 121

y = 121×3/11

y = 33

x = 48 - (2/3)y

x = 48 - (2/3)(33)

x = 48 - 22

x = 26

F(x) = x2 + 1 g(x) = 5 – x<br><br> (f + g)(x) =
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

(f + g)(x) =  {x}^{2} - x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

f(x) =  {x}^{2}  + 1

and

g(x) = 5 - x

We want to find (f+g)(x).

By the algebraic properties of polynomial functions,

(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

(f + g)(x) =  {x}^{2}  + 1 + 5 - x

This simplifies to

(f + g)(x) =  {x}^{2}  - x + 6

We can't simplify further, hence the simplest form
