(a). 8x + y = 20, where (b). y = x2 - 2x + 4
So where y is in equation (a), substitute in the value of y in (b).
8x + (x2 - 2x + 4) = 20
8x + (4) = 20
Get rid of the 4 on both sides (since what you do to one side, you must do to the other)
8x + 4 - 4 = 20 - 4
8x = 16
Get rid of the 8 to leave x on its own
8x ÷ 8 = 16 ÷ 8
x = 2
So now that you have x, find y but substituting in the value you just found (2) into one of the starting equations.
8x + y = 20 where x is 2.
8(2) + y = 20
16 + y = 20
Minus 16 from both sides
y = 20 - 16 = 4
So x is 2 and y is 4

Answer:

Solution of the equation is (2,4) and (-8,84) .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given the equation

y = x² - 2x + 4

8x + y = 40

Putting y = x² - 2x + 4 in 8x + y = 40 .

8x + x² - 2x + 4 = 40

x² + 6x + 4 = 20

x² + 6x + 4 -20 = 0

x² + 6x - 16 = 0

x² + 8x - 2x - 16 = 0

x(x+8)-2(x+8) = 0

(x+8)(x-2) = 0

x = -8 , x = 2

Put x = -8 in the equation 8x + y = 20 .

8 × -8 + y = 20

-64 + y = 20

y = 20 + 64

y = 84

Put x = 2 in the equation 8x + y = 20 .

8 × 2 + y = 20

16 + y = 20

y = 20 - 16

y = 4

Therefore solution of the equation is (2,4) and (-8,84) .

Let a, b, c and x elements in the group G. In each of the following solve for x in terms of a, b, and c.

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The answer is $x=a^{-1}cb^{-1}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it is important to recall that the group law is not commutative in general, so we cannot assume it here. In order to solve the exercise we need to remember the axioms of group, specially the existence of the inverse element, i.e., for each element $g\in G$ there exist another element, denoted by $g^{-1}$ such that $gg^{-1}=e$ , where $e$ stands for the identity element of G.

So, given the equality $axb=c$ we make a left multiplication by $a^{-1}$ and we obtain:

$a^{-1}axb =a^{-1}c.$

But, $a^{-1}axb = exb = xb$ . Hence, $xb = a^{-1}c$ .

Now, in the equality $xb = a^{-1}c$ we make a right multiplication by $b^{-1}$ , and we obtain

$xbb^{-1} = a^{-1}cb^{-1}$ .

Recall that $bb^{-1}=e$ and $xe=x$ . Therefore,

$x=a^{-1}cb^{-1}$ .

Solve equation show work

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

h= -8/3

Picture Explanation:

Divide 3 on both sides of the equal sign, as shown above, so (h) can be alone.
Since negative 8, let alone positive 8, can't be divided into 3, you simply leave the fraction as is. So you're left with (h= -8/3)

Hope this makes sense.
