Because you're trying to make them congruent, equal the two expressions to each other.
So, for #10 you would equal them so it would look like this.
2x+2=5x-19
Then you would just go ahead and simplify
2x+2=5x-19
-2x -2x
---------------
2= 3x -19
+19 +19
---------------
21=3x
--- ----
3 3
x=7
This means that x should be 7. You can check this just by plugging it in
2x+2
2(7)+2 = 16
5x-19
5(7)-19= 16
Same with #11.
x+8=3x-14
-x -x
--------------
8=2x-14
+14 +14
--------------
22=2x
--- ----
2 2
x=11
Check.
x+8
11+8= 19
3x-14
3(11) - 14 = 19
A quadratic equation is an equation that includes a squared term. For example, 3x + 7 = 28 is not a quadratic equation as it only has x, whereas x^2 + 5x + 6 = 0 is a quadratic equation as it includes x^2. Quadratic equations also usually have two solutions, whereas linear equations (like my first example) only have one.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you would like me to explain anything more :)
Answer: √20
Step-by-step explanation:
4.47213595 (the 5 repeats)
27 x 1.25= 33.75
5 x 1.99=9.95
1 x 1.50= 1.50
add that up =45.2
