Answer:
b=9,a=12
Step-by-step explanation:
I solved by substitution:
b = 3/4a ---> plug this into the other equation
a + b = 21 is now a + 3/4a = 21
Reduce: 7/4a = 21
a = 12
Now solve for b:
b=3/4a is now b=3/4(12)
b=9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x-5)²=63
(x-5)²=63/7
(x-5) = +/- 3
x = 5 + 3
or
x = 5- 3
x = 8 or 2
