Y - x - 3 = 0
y = x + 3
y = x^2 - x - 12
x + 3 = x^2 - x - 12
x^2 - x - 12 - x - 3 = 0
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0
x - 5 = 0 y = x + 3
x = 5 y = 5 + 3
y = 8
x + 3 = 0 y = x + 3
x = -3 y = -3 + 3
y = 0
so ur solutions are : (5,8) and (-3,0)
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 of 12 is 6
Zeke ate twice as much as Niko, so he ate 12 and Niko ate 6.
This makes 18 cookies eaten in total.
Answer:
8m.
Step-by-step explanation:
an = 2 an-1 means that each term in the sequence( except the first) is obtained by multiplying the last term by 2, so the first 4 terms are m, 2m, 4m, 8m.
Okay, so total dogs are 49.
So we know if x=large dogs and y=small dogs, then x+y=49.
Next we are told that there are 36 MORE small dogs than large dogs. We can take that more meaning addition, and x being our value for large dogs. So y=x+36.
After that we now know what value we can plug in for y. So x+x+36=49.
We can then simplify it to 2x+36=49.
Subtracting the 36 from both sides, leaves you with 2x=13.
Followed by dividing both sides by 2, gives you x=6.5. Or 6.5 large dogs.
Now we can plug this into our formula for the small dogs (y=x+36) to give us y=6.5+36, which simplifies to y=42.5. Or 42.5 small dogs. Which is our answer.
We can double check it by adding the small and large dogs together, 6.5+42.5, which gives us 49, our total entries.
