The equation given in the question is
3x^2 + 22x - 16 = 0
3x^2 + 24x - 2x - 16 = 0
3x(x + 8) - 2(x + 8) = 0
(3x - 2)(x + 8) = 0
Then either
3x - 2 = 0
3x = 2
x = 2/3
Or
x + 8 = 0
x = - 8
So from the above deduction, we can conclude that the value of "x" cam be either 2/3 or - 8.

     6x    -12=0      (if you just want the resulting equation. It is 6x-12=0)

take x=2 and put it into equation (2)
4(2) -3y -2=0
-3y= 2-8 
   y= 2
(x=2,y=2)

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Three reasons why the other method is not better is because to use drawing program would mean you would need some sort of technology and electricity to use it and some places, like third world countries, do not have access to that, so most probably you would have to resort to paper. Also, drawing programs are based off the skills needed to create geometric figures with a straightedge and compass. And lastly, what if we had no more technology anymore? Then how would we use a drawing program? Drawing programs are only reliable when electricity is located.

SO THE ANSWER IS A hope it help :)

Observe the expression below and select the true statement(s).
DENIUS [597]

Answer: The 9 in the second term is a coefficient that is true. I think that is the only thing that is true. There may be one more thing that is true.

The 10 in the third term is not  a coefficient.

The 2 is not a constant

the x is not an exponent.

those are the ones that I'm sure about.

Please correct anything if i'm wrong.

The product of two consecutive positive integers is 29 more than their sum. Find the integers
Rina8888 [55]
The consecutive positive integers would be: x and (x+1),
We would have to solve the following equation to find these numbers:
x(x+1)-[x+(x+1)]=29
x²+x-2x-1=29
x²-x-30=0
x=[1⁺₋√(1+120)]/2
x=(1⁺₋11)/2
We have two possible solutions:
x₁=(1-11)/2=-5    then: (x+1)=-5+1=-4  This is not the solution.
x₂=(1+11)/2=6    then: (x+1)=6+1=7    This solution is right.

Answer: the numbers would be 6 and 7.

34,715 divided by 26 equals 1,335.192307692308

1,760.192307692308-1,335.192307692308=425
