Please help i will give you brainliest and every yhing

Lina20 [59]

first subtract the last equation from the first. this gives:-

-x + y = -8 .....................(1)

Then multiply the first equation by 2 and add it to the 2nd equations This gives

9x = 18

so x = 2

and from equation (1) y = -8 + 2 = -6

Substituting for x and y in the second equation

z = (24 -5(2) -12) / 2 = 1

Answer is choice b.

What are the solutions of the quadratic equation (x + 3)(x +3) = 49? Ax = -2 and x = -16 Bx = 2 and x = -10 Cx = 4 and x = -10 D

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

4 and -10

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle (x + 3)(x +3) = 49 \\ x^2+3x+3x+9=49 \\ x^2 +6x+9=49 \\ x^2 + 6x + 9 - 49 = 0 \\x^2+6x-40=0 \\\\ \Delta=b^2-4ac \\ \Delta=6^2-4 \cdot 1 \cdot (-40) \\ \Delta=36+160 \\ \Delta=196 \\ \\ X_{1,2}=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} \\ \\ X_1=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} = \frac{-6+14}{2} = \frac{8}{2}=4 \\ \\ X_2=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a} = \frac{-6-14}{2}=\frac{-20}{2} = -10$
