Answer:
(x, y) = (-6, 15) and (2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start by subtracting the second equation from the first.
(y) -(y) = (x^2 +2x -9) -(-2x +3)
0 = x^2 +4x -12 . . . . . . collect terms
0 = (x +6)(x -2) . . . . . . . factor
Solutions for x are -6 and +2. These values make the factors zero.
The corresponding solutions for y are ...
y = -2(-6) +3 = 15
y = -2(2) +3 = -1
Solutions to the system of equations are ...
(x, y) = (-6, 15) and (2, -1)
3(x+7)<7(x+2)
Inequality Form: x>7/4
Interval Notation: (7/4, infinity)
Answer:
<u>The number is 296.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call "x" to the number we are looking for.
Now, the problem states that "5 more than the quotient of a number and 8 is 42". This means that this number is being divided by 8, it's also being additioned 5 and the final result is 42. Therefore, the expression of this operations on this number is the following:
. Let's solve the equation to find x.
1. Write the expression.

2. Substract 5 from both sides and simplify.

3. Multiply 8 on both sides and simplify.

<u>We have found our number, it's 296!</u>
