The correct answer is 8. See the steps below:

1. We will use x for the unknown number.

2. X^2+24=5x according to the given info.

3. Move everything to one side.

X^2-5x-24=0
(X-8)(x+3)=0

X is 8 or -3.

However, the problem said positive number. So we can ignore the -3, the correct answer is 8.

What is the exact value of the expression the square root of 486. − the square root of 24. + the square root of 6.? Simplify if
kenny6666 [7]
Sqrt(486) - sqrt(24) + sqrt(6)

find the factors of 486 that we can remove from under the square root sign
 2 * 243
 2 * 3 * 81
 2 * 3 * 9 * 9 (we have 2 nines, we can move a 9 outside the sqrt sign)
sqrt(486) = 9 sqrt(6)

Repeating for sqrt(24)
2 * 12
2 * 2 * 6
2 * 2 * 2 * 3 (we can move a 2 outside the sqrt
sqrt(24) = 2 sqrt(6)

Finally, add all 3 terms together

9 sqrt(6) - 2 sqrt(6) + sqrt(6)
8 sqrt(6)

8 times square root of 6 is the final answer

8. Solve the system using elimination.<br> 3x - 4y = 9<br> - 3x + 2y = 9
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

3x−4y=9 −3x+2y=9

Add these equations to eliminate x: −2y=18

Then solve−2y=18

for y: −2y=18 −2y −2 = 18 −2 (Divide both sides by -2)

y=−9

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation: 3x−4y=9

Substitute−9for y in 3x−4y=9: 3x−(4)(−9)=9

3x+36=9(Simplify both sides of the equation)

3x+36+−36=9+−36(Add -36 to both sides)

3x=−27 3x 3 = −27 3 (Divide both sides by 3) x=−9

Answer: x=−9 and y=−9

Hope This Helps!!!
