Xy = - 12
x + y = - 1

x = - 12/y
- 12/y + y = - 1
- 12 + y^2 = - y
y^2 + y - 12 = 0
( y - 3 ) ( y + 4 ) = 0
y = 3 , y = - 4

3x = - 12
x = - 4

y = 3

Answer:

\dfrac{3x+4}{2x-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Invert and multiply the way you would any fraction division problem. Then cancel common factors from numerator and denominator.

\displaystyle\frac{\left(\frac{4x^2+2x}{x^2+x-2}\right)}{\left(\frac{8x^2+4x}{3x^2+10x+8}\right)}=\frac{4x^2+2x}{x^2+x-2}\cdot\frac{3x^2+10x+8}{8x^2+4x}\\\\=\frac{2x(2x+1)(3x+4)(x+2)}{4x(2x+1)(x-1)(x+2)}=\frac{3x+4}{2(x-1)}\\\\=\frac{3x+4}{2x-2}

Kiyo bought a pizza for $12.75 and four medium drinks at Paola’s pizza. Define a variable and write an expression to represent t
Travka [436]
Y = total amount of money spent
x = cost of one drink

So our expression is:
4x + 12.75

4x stands for 4 drinks times x price of one drink
The 12.75 is a one time fee for the pizza, since Kiyo isn't buying multiple pizzas.

The problem also asks us to find the total price, so we write an equation:

y = 4x + 12.75
We insert what x is which in this case is $3
y = 4(3) + 12.75
Order of Operations tells us to multiply first:
y = 12 + 12.75
Now add your values:
y = 24.75
Therefore, Kiyo spent a total amount of 24.75 at Paola's pizza.

Let's check our problem just in case:

24.75 = 4x + 12.75
Since we now know what y is equal to, we can plug that into our original equation and check just to verify

We should subtract 12. on both sides of the equation because of inverse operations:

24.75 - 12.75  = 12.75 - 12.75 + 4x
We are left with:

12 = 4x
We divide:
\frac{12}{4}  =  \frac{4x}{4}
Our result is:
3 = x
Which checks out because each drink was in fact, $3 dollars as stated in the word problem. Hope that was thorough enough.

Copy and complete the table on the previous page into a Word document. Title your journal "Pythagorean Theorem". Discuss any rel
scoundrel [369]
In trigonometry, the right triangle is considered a special triangle because there are derived equations solely for this type. It is really convenient when dealing right triangle problems because it is more simplified courtesy of the Pythagorean theorems. It is derived that the square of the hypotenuse (longest side of the triangle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two legs. In equation, that would be c² = a² + b². For this activity, all you have to do is find the sum of the squares in columns a and b. Then, see if this is equal to the square of the values in column c. Let's calculate each row:

Row 1:
3² + 4² ? 5²
25 ? 25
25 = 25

Row 2:
5² + 12² ? 13²
169 ? 169
169 = 169

Row 3:
9² + 12² ? 15²
225 ? 225
225 = 225

Therefore, all of the given values conform to a² + b² = c².

find the value of x2 values that separate the middle 90% from the rest of the distribution for 8 degrees of freedom
Anettt [7]

Answer:

With alpha 0.95 and 8 degrees of freedom χ²= 2.73

And with alpha 0.05 and 8 degrees of freedom χ²=15.51

Step-by-step explanation:

The significance level ∝ = 1- 0.9 = 0.1

But we need the area of the middle so we divide this significance level with 2

so that we get exactly the middle area .

Dividing 0.1/2= 0.05

So we will have two values for chi square

One with  0.9 + 0.05 = 0.95 alpha and one with 0.05 alpha . This is because the chi square is right tailed.

So with alpha 0.95 and 8 degrees of freedom χ²= 2.73

And with alpha 0.05 and 8 degrees of freedom χ²=15.51

This can be shown with a graph.
