Hope this helps :^)
It will be as I understand:
(x*y)=x

or (x*y)=y</span>
Answer:
q = -13
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:

Taking 2 as common from left hand side, we get:
![2(x^{2}-4x)=5\\\\2[x^{2} - 2(x)(2)]=5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%28x%5E%7B2%7D-4x%29%3D5%5C%5C%5C%5C2%5Bx%5E%7B2%7D%20-%202%28x%29%282%29%5D%3D5)
The square of difference is written as:
Equation 1
If we compare the given equation from previous step to formula in Equation 1, we note that we have square of first term(x), twice the product of 1st term(x) and second term(2) and the square of second term(2) is missing. So in order to complete the square we need to add and subtract square of 2 to right hand side. i.e.
![2[x^{2}-2(x)(2)+(2)^2-(2)^{2}]=5\\\\ 2[x^{2}-2(x)(2)+(2)^2]-2(2)^{2}=5\\\\ 2(x-2)^{2}-2(4)=5\\\\ 2(x-2)^2-8=5\\\\ 2(x-2)^{2}-8-5=0\\\\ 2(x-2)^{2}-13=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%5Bx%5E%7B2%7D-2%28x%29%282%29%2B%282%29%5E2-%282%29%5E%7B2%7D%5D%3D5%5C%5C%5C%5C%202%5Bx%5E%7B2%7D-2%28x%29%282%29%2B%282%29%5E2%5D-2%282%29%5E%7B2%7D%3D5%5C%5C%5C%5C%202%28x-2%29%5E%7B2%7D-2%284%29%3D5%5C%5C%5C%5C%202%28x-2%29%5E2-8%3D5%5C%5C%5C%5C%202%28x-2%29%5E%7B2%7D-8-5%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%202%28x-2%29%5E%7B2%7D-13%3D0)
Comparing the above equation with the given equation:
, we can say:
p = 2 and q= -13
Answer:
The number is infinity
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the unknown number be x
if the number increased by three, then we have;
x + 3
Also quadrupling that number increased by five all divided by four is expressed as;
(4x+5)/4
Equating bith expressions and calculating x;
x+3 = (4x+5)/4
cross multiply;
4(x+3) = 4x + 5
4x+12 = 4x + 5
4x-4x = 5 - 12
0x = -7
x = -7/0
x = ∞
Hence the number is infinity
The slope is 5/4. Hope this helps!
