Answer:

x = \frac{a(a + b)}{a-b}

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out formula

a(x - b) = a² + bx

Step 2: Distribute

ax - ab = a² + bx

Step 3: Add <em>ab</em> to both sides

ax = a² + bx + ab

Step 4: Subtract <em>bx</em> on both sides

ax - bx = a² + ab

Step 5: Factor

x(a - b) = a² + ab

Step 6: Divide (a - b) on both sides

x = \frac{a^{2} + ab}{a-b}

Step 7: Factor

x = \frac{a(a + b)}{a-b}

And we have our final answer!

What numbers multiply to -30 and add to -3
krek1111 [17]
Let the numbers be x and y.  Then xy = -30 and  x+y = -3.

Solve xy = -30 for y:    y = -30/x

subst. -30/x for y in   x+y= -3:     x  -  30/x = -3

Multiply all 3 terms by x:  x^2 - 30 = -3x, so   x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0

Solve this quadratic equation for x.     x: {-5, 2}

If x = -5, then   x+y = -3 becomes -5 + y = -3, and y = 2.

You should check to determine whether x=2 is also correct.  If it is, what is the corresponding y value?

4 7/10 + 6/8 Fractions please help cant solve. used two methods but answer isnt the same as the answer page from the book
erastova [34]

Answer:

5 9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

4 7/10 + 6/8

Simplify the fractions by dividing the second top and bottom  by 2

4 7/10 + 3/4

Getting a common denominator of 20

4 7/10 *2/2  + 3/4 * 5/5

4 14/20  + 15/20

4 29/20

4 + 20/20 + 9/20

4+1+9/20

5 9/20

Solve the system of equations.<br> y=7x<br> y=2x + 20<br><br> x=?<br> y=?
alekssr [168]
X=4, y=28. 7x=2x+20, so subtract 2x from both sides and you’ll get 5x=20. Divide both sides by 5 and you’ll get x=4. Substitute this into the other equations and they will both equal 28.
