I assume you mean x squared in the first equation
Because both are equal to y, they are equal to each other so x + 5 = x^2 +3
If we then move everything over to one side, we get x^2 - x - 2 = 0
Then factorise it to (x-2)(x+1) = 0
And solve both parts separately
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
x-2 = 0
x = 2
Sub both values into the simplest equation in this case y=x+5
to get y = 4 and y = 7
Answer:
102.62
Step-by-step explanation:
I converted everything to inches and then solved for x by putting 58 in. over 66 in. (the girls shadow in in.) and the X in. over 1500 in. I cross multiplied (58 x 1500 and 68 x X) and then divided 68 by the result of 58 x 1500.
Let us suppose the width is x feet
the length is given 12 feet
Perimeter of teh garden = 2( Length + width )= 2( 12+ x)
Fencing required = perimeter of garden
36 = 2( 12+x)
36 = 2*12 + 2x
36 = 24 + 2x
36-24 = 2x
12 = 2x
12/2 = x
6 = x
Width = x feet = 6 feet .Answer .
A) y=55x+80
C) y=55(12)+80 = 740$ after a year
B)
