Hello I don’t understand question 9 a and b. Please show working out. Thanks

brilliants [131]

A) I would make the positive integer x and then form an equation.

x + 30 = x^2 - 12
x + 42 = x^2
0 = x^2 - x - 42 this can be factorised
(x - 7) ( x + 6) Therefore x = 7 or x = -6

Since the question asks for a positive integer the answer is 7.

B) two positive numbers x and y.

X - y = 3
x^2 + y^2 = 117

Use these simultaneous equations to figure out each number.

Rearrange the first equation

x = y + 3

Then substitute it into the second equation.

(y+3)^2 + y^2 = 117
y^2 + 6y + 9 + y^2 = 117
2y^2 + 6y - 108 = 0
then factorise this.
(2y - 12) (y + 9)

This means that y = 6 or y = -9 but it’s 6 because that’s the only positive number.

Use y to find x

x = y + 3
x = 6 + 3
x = 9

So the answers are x = 9 and y = 6.

A number line goes from negative 5 to positive 5. Point D is at negative 4 and point E is at positive 5. A line is drawn from po

Ronch [10]

Directed numbers are numbers that have either a positive or negative sign, which can be shown on a number line. Therefore, point F is Fifteen-halves of line segment DE.

A number line is a system that can show the positions of positive or negative numbers. It has its ends ranging from negative infinity to positive infinity. Thus any directed number can be located on the line.

Directed numbers are numbers with either a negative or positive sign, which shows their direction with respect to the number line.

In the given question, the distance between points D and E is 9 units. So that dividing 9 units in the ratio of 5 to 6, we have;

$\frac{5}{6}$ x 9 = $\frac{45}{6}$

= $\frac{15}{2}$

Therefore, the location of point F, which partitions the directed line segment from d to E into a 5:6 ratio is $\frac{15}{2}$ . Thus the answer is Fifteen-halves.

What substitution should be used to rewrite 6(x 5)2 5(x 5) – 4 = 0 as a quadratic equation? u = (x 5) u = (x – 5) u = (x 5)2 u =

Korolek [52]

The substitution that should be used to rewrite 6(x+5)^2 + 5(x+5) - 4 = 0 is u = x + 5

<h3>Quadratic equations</h3>

These are equations that has a leading degree of 2. Given the expression

6(x+5)^2 + 5(x+5) - 4 = 0

In order to simplify this equation, we will replace the reoccuring term by a variable.

From the equation we can see that (x+5) is occuring the most. Let u = x + 5 so that:

6u^2 - 5u - 4 = 0

Hence the substitution that should be used to rewrite 6(x+5)^2 + 5(x+5) - 4 = 0 is u = x + 5
