Answer:
Since both equations are equal to y, we can set them equal to each other.
y =-3x +8
y = -5x -2
-3x +8 = -5x -2
Solve for x.To do this, we need to get x by itself. First, move all the numbers to one side of the equation, and all the variables to the other.
-3x +8 = -5x -2
Add 5x to both sides
-3x+5x +8=-5x+5x -2
2x+8=-2
Subtract 8 from both sides
2x+8-8 = -2-8
2x=-10
Now, all the numbers are on one side, with the variables on the other. x is not by itself, it is being multiplied by 2. To undo this, divide both sides by 2
2x/2= -10/2
x= -5
Now, to find y, substitute -5 in for x in one of the equations.
y = -5x -2
y= -5(-5) -2
y=25-2
y=23
Put the solution into (x,y)
<u><em>The solution is (-5, 23)</em></u>
The number of positive roots is the number of changes of signs there are, then decrease by 2 each time and stop when you get to 1 or 0
negative roots, sub every x with -x and reevaluate, count change of signs
decrease by 2 each time and stop when you get to 1 or 0
y=+2x⁵-x⁴-2x³+4x²+x-2
+,-,-,+,+,-
1 2 3
3 or 1 positive roots
replace x with -x ( baically flip all signs of odd powerd numbers)
y=-2x⁵-x⁴+2x³+4x²-x-2
-,-,+,+,-,-
1 2
2 or 0 negative roots
3 or 1 positive roots
2 or 0 negative roots
2nd option is answer
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Distribute the -2. multiply-2 with 5x and 8. it will be -10x-16=14+6x. For me, i make small numbers negative or positive than big ones. Add 16 to both sides. it will be -10x=30+6x. Subtract 6x. -10x-6x=-16x. Divide both sides by 16. x=30/16= 1 and 14/16
Given is a sculpture that is built up of metal and wood, and the weight of this sculpture is 14.9 kilograms.
It says that three-fourth of the total weight is metal and says to find the weight of wooden part.
We can find the weight of metal part and then subtract it from the total weight to calculate the answer.
Total weight = 14.9 kilograms.
Metal part = three-fourth of total weight = 
Wooden part = 14.9 - 11.175 = 3.725 kilograms.
Hence, the wooden part is 3.725 kilograms.
