Answer:

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First we will solve the radical equation</u> (which I guess was problem 1),

Let's start by simplifying it:

3\sqrt{6-x}+4=-8\\ 3\sqrt{6-x}=-8-4\\ 3\sqrt{6-x}=-12\\\sqrt{6-x}=-4

Now we will solve the equation by squaring both sides of the equation:

\sqrt{6-x} =-4\\6-x=-4^{2} \\6-x=16\\-x=16-6\\-x=10\\x=-10

So the calculation for x was that x = -10

However, this does not produce a solution to the equation: When we plug this value into the radical equation we get:

3\sqrt{6-x} +4= -8\\3\sqrt{6-(-10)} +4=-8\\3\sqrt{16}+4 = -8\\ 3(4)+4 = -8\\12 + 4 = -8

This happens because <u>when we first squared both sides of the equation in the first part of the problem we missed one value for x </u>(remember that all roots have 2 answers, a positive one and a negative one) while squares are always positive.

When we squared the root, we missed one value for x and that is why the calculation does not produce a solution to the equation.

(3x + 5y = 7<br> { 4x - y = 5
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution by substitution method

3x+5y=7

and 4x-y=5

Suppose,

3x+5y=7→(1)

and 4x-y=5→(2)

Taking equation (2), we have

4x-y=5

⇒y=4x-5→(3)

Putting y=4x-5 in equation (1), we get

3x+5y=7

⇒3x+5(4x-5)=7

⇒3x+20x-25=7

⇒23x-25=7

⇒23x=7+25

⇒23x=32

⇒x=32/23

→(4)

Now, Putting x=32/23

in equation (3), we get

y=4x-5

⇒y=4(32/23)-5

⇒y=(128-115)/23

⇒y=13/23

∴y=13/23   and x=32/23
