3+2=5
30 divided by 5=6
6X3=18
6X2=12
18+12=30
18:12

$Other\ method:\\\\x;y-searches\\\\ \left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+y=30&|subtract\ y\ from\ both\ sides\\x:y=3:2\end{array}\right\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x=30-y&(1)\\\frac{x}{y}=\frac{3}{2}&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\subtitute\ (1)\ to\ (2):\\\\\frac{30-y}{y}=\frac{3}{2}\ \ \ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\(3)(y)=(2)(30-y)\\3y=60-2y\ \ \ \ |add\ 2y\ to\ both\ sides\\5y=60\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\\boxed{y=12}$

$Put\ the\ value\ of\ y\ to\ (1):\\x=30-12\\\boxed{x=18}\\\\Answer:\boxed{\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x=18\\y=12\end{array}\right\to18:12}$

Consider the square root function f(x) = sqrt x + 2 + 1 to complete the table of values below. find each missing value and then

Scrat [10]

Given the function :

$f(x)=\sqrt[]{x+2}+1$

We need to find each missing value

Given x = -3 , -2 , -1 , 2 , 7

So, substitute with each value of x to find the corresponding value of f(x)

$x=-3\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{-3+2}+1=\sqrt[]{-1}+1$

So, there is no value for f(x) at x = -3 (the function undefined because the square root of -1)

$\begin{gathered} x=-2\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{-2+2}+1=\sqrt[]{0}+1=0+1=1 \\ \\ x=-1\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{-1+2}+1=\sqrt[]{1}+1=1+1=2 \\ \\ x=2\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{2+2}+1=\sqrt[]{4}+1=2+1=3 \\ \\ x=7\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{7+2}+1=\sqrt[]{9}+1=3+1=4 \end{gathered}$

the graph of the function and the points will be as shown in the following image :
