0=-8x-4
you then move the variable to the left and you get
8x=-4
you then divide both sides to get the answer
x=-1/2

A two digit number has a tens digit and a ones digit.
Let's say x = tens digit and y = ones digit
"The sum of the digits is 5"
x + y = 5
The next phrase is "the number multiplied by 3 is 42" but we need to represent the number using the digits. So they need to be multiplied first by their place value and added together. [Example: 34 = 3(10) + 4(1)]
The number is: 10x + y
3(10x + y) = 42
The system of equations: (two equations for two unknowns)
x + y = 5
30x + 3y = 42
Then you can use substitution or elimination to combine and solve.
I'll use elimination, multiply the entire top equation by -3 and add the equations together. y will cancel out
-3x - 3y = -15
30x + 3y = 42
------------------
27x + 0 = 27
x = 1
then plug x = 1 into either equation to find y
1 + y = 5
y = 4
remember the x and y represent digits so the number xy is 14
Answer:
3 both ways x = 3
EXPLANATION:
plug in inputs and do a little simplifying we get
x = 6 ± √(36-36) all of that over 2
So we simplify and we get 6±sqrt(0) / 2
Then we get 6/2 = 3
x-0 = x+0
thats why there is only one answer
YEAH OFC SHAWTY!
- so for A its -4^11 because if the powers have the same base and they are being multiplied you add the powers
- For B its the same idea, they have the same base, and are being multiplied so you add the powers- 13^9
- For C its similar, you have the same base, but since its Dividing, you subtract the powers. So, 9^5
- for D you pretend like the denominator has a power of 1 and subtract. So its -24^5-24^1 which hopefully puts it into perspective of being -24^4 becuase we subtracted the powers
I cant do 2 right now, but i will in a minute
<u>And for 3 his mistake is that they arent the same bases so he cant add the powers, he should have converted them to the same base first. </u>
