Answer: x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that line segment AC= AB + BC
we also know that AB= 3x+8 and BC= 2x-5
by substituting these, we get AC= (3x+8)+(2x-5)
AC is given as being 23, so we know that
23= (3x+8)+(2x-5)
by combining like terms, we get that
5x+3=23
simplify this to get that x=4

Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx
5.5=m×11
5.5÷11=m
m=1/2
y=mx
3.5=1/2×x
3.5÷1/2=x
x=7
A) x² + y² = 327
B) x * y = 101
Solving equation B for y²
B) y² = 10,201 / x²
Substituting this into equation A)
x² + 10,201 / x² = 327
x^4 + 10,201 = 327x²
x^4 -327x² + 10,201 = 0
Using the quartic equation calculator: http://www.1728.org/quartic.htm
x1 = 17.090169943749476
x2 = 5.909830056250525
x1 * x2 = 101
x1 + x2 = 23
