Answer:

step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

x^{2} +10x-49=0 ---> given problem

step 1

Move the constant to the right side

x^{2} +10x=49

the step 1 is correct

step 2

Complete the square

x^{2} +10x+5^2=49+5^2

x^{2} +10x+5^2=74

<u><em>The step 2 is not correct</em></u>

step 3

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x+5)^{2}=74

step 4

take square root both sides

x+5=\pm\sqrt{74}

step 5

Find the values of x

x=-5\pm\sqrt{74}

x=-5+\sqrt{74}

x=-5-\sqrt{74}

Lilly has $35,she went to the store and spender 10% of it,how much money she has left?
kirill115 [55]
Hi there! Lily has $31.50 left.

To find our answer we first need to know the amount of money Lily spend.
10\% \times 35 = 0.1 \times 35 = 3.50

Therefore, Lily spend $3.50. Now we subtract this amount of money from the amount she initially owned.


35 - 3.50 = 31.50
Hence, Lily has $31.50 left.

Explain why the negation of “Some students in my class use e-mail” is not “Some students in my class do not use e-mail”.
Olenka [21]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Some students in my class use e-mail.

It is a type of 'E' statements.

Its negation should be No students in my class use e-mail.

Because if we use "Some students in my class do not use e-mail”.

It also implies some students in my class still use e-mail.

But negation contains only opposite of given statement.

So, Some students in my class do not use e-mail” is not true.

You purchased 8 gal of paint and 3 brushes for 152.5. the next day, you purchased 6 gal of paint and 2 brushes for 113. how much
kotegsom [21]
Let the price of paint be x and the price of brush be y

8x + 3y = 152.5 ------------ (1)
6x + 2y = 113 --------------- (2)

(1) x 2 :
16x + 6y =305 -------------(1a)

(2) x (3) :
18x + 6y = 339 -------------(2a)

(2a) - (1a) :
2x = 34
x = 17 ---------- sub into (2)
6(17) + 2y = 113
102 + 2y = 113
2y = 113 - 102
2y = 11
y = 5.5


x = $17, y = $5.50

Each gallon of paint costs $17 and each brush costs $5.50
