Answer:

Our two numbers are 50 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum means add together

Difference means subtract each other

x + y = 70

x - y = 30

subtract from each other

2x = 100

divide both sides by 2

x = 50

our first number is 50

50 + y = 70

subtract both sides by 50

y = 20

Our two numbers are 50 and 20

Find the measure of angle x

Triss [41]

Answer:

it is heptagon and sum of interior angles of heptagon is 900 °

123°+131°+ 125°+124°+x 129°+132° = 900°

764° +x = 900 °

x = 900°-764°

x = 136°

Noah and Lin are each trying to solve the equation x² - 6x + 10 = 0. They know that the solutions to x² = - 1 are i and -i, but

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Solving the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ we get $x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$

Step-by-step explanation:

Noah's step to solve the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ are:

$x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0\\x^2 - 6x = -10\\x^2 - 6x + 9 = -10 + 9\\(x-3)^2 = -1$

The next step is to take square root on both sides because: $\sqrt{x^2}=x$

$\sqrt{(x-3)^2}=\sqrt{-1} \\x-3=\pm\sqrt{-1} \\x=\pm(\sqrt{-1})+3 \\$

Now, we know that: $\sqrt{-1}=i$

$x=\pm(i)+3\\x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$

So, Solving the equation $x^2 - 6x + 10 = 0$ we get $x=3+i \ , \ x=3-i$
