Answer:
the roots are n = 1 + √15 and n = 1 - √15
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case I would immediately rewrite n² - 2n - 5 = 10 as
n² - 2n = 10 + 5 = 15.
To complete the square: Identify the coefficient of n (it is -2). Halve that, obtaining -1, square this result, and then add the outcome (1) to and subtract the outcome (1) to n² - 2n:
n² - 2n <em>+ 1 - 1 </em> = 15
Next, rewrite n² - 2n + 1 as the square of a binomial:
(n - 1)² = 15
Finally, take the square root of both sides:
n - 1 = ±√15
so that the roots are n = 1 + √15 and n = 1 - √15
9 - 18
5 - 10
1 - 2

First line:
y = 2 (9)
y = 18
Second line:
10 = 2x
5 = x
Third line:
y = 2 (1)
y = 2
Answer:
(- 2, - 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x - 3y = - 1 → (1)
x + 4y = - 6 → (2)
Rearrange (2) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 4y from both sides
x = - 6 - 4y → (3)
Substitute x = - 6 - 4y into (1)
2(- 6 - 4y) - 3y = - 1 ← distribute and simplify left side
- 12 - 8y - 3y = - 1
- 12 - 11y = - 1 ( add 12 to both sides )
- 11y = 11 ( divide both sides by - 11 )
y = - 1
Substitute y = - 1 into (3) for corresponding value of x
x = - 6 - 4(- 1) = - 6 + 4 = - 2
Solution is (- 2, - 1 )
First move the constant to the other side causing it to change sides
4x<-6-6
Then calculate the difference (-6-6)
4x<-12
Now divide both sides by 4
X<-3
Then you are left with your answer:
x<-3
Hope this helps! :3
