. Anna was thinking of a number. She told Bill that if he squared her number followed by subtracting 11 times her, and adding 4,
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Anna's number could be 5 and it could be 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Anna's number be represented by x.

If Bill squared her number followed by subtracting 11 times her number, and adding 4, then he would get -26.

This implies that:

x^2 - 11x + 4 = -26

This is a quadratic equation and we can solve for x by factorization.

x^2 - 11x + 4 = -26\\\\=> x^2 - 11x + 4 + 26 = 0\\\\x^2 - 11x + 30 = 0\\\\x^2 -6x-5x + 30 = 0\\\\x(x - 6) - 5(x - 6) = 0\\\\(x - 5) (x - 6) = 0\\\\

=> x = 5 and x = 6

Anna's number could be 5 and it could be 6.

Mikey's family is taking a road trip. Their car can travel no more than 260 miles without needing to refill the gas tank. They h
Assoli18 [71]

The solution to the inequality is that Mikey's family can drive at most 148

Inequality shows the non equal comparison of numbers or expressions.

Given that Mikey situation can be represented by the inequality:

112 + x ≤ 260

Solving the inequality:

112 + x ≤ 260

Subtract 112 from both sides of the equation:

112 + x - 112 ≤ 260 - 112

x ≤ 148

Hence from the inequality, we can see that Mikey's family can drive

at most 148
