In this example, y is equal to 8.
In order to find this, first note that the two x value expressions create a straight line. That means when we add them together they will equal 180. this will give us a value for x.
x + 10 + 10x - 61 = 180
11x - 51 = 180
11x = 231
x = 21
Now that we have the value of x, we can do the same for the straight line created by the x + 10 angle and the 18y + 5 angle.
x + 10 + 18y + 5 = 180
(21) + 10 + 18y + 5 = 180
36 + 18y = 180
18y = 144
y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation given is:
Using quadratic formula:
From the question:
a = 2, b = -4, c = 7
Therefore:
=>
Answer:
x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+4) ^ (1/3) + (2x+8) ^ (1/3) = 0
Subtract (x+4) ^ (1/3) from each side
(x+4) ^ (1/3) - (x+4) ^ (1/3)+ (2x+8) ^ (1/3) = -(x+4) ^ (1/3)
(2x+8) ^ (1/3) = -(x+4) ^ (1/3)
Cube each side
(2x+8) ^ (1/3) ^3= -(x+4) ^ (1/3)^3
2x+8 = -(x+4)
Distribute the negative sign
2x+8 = -x -4
Add x to each side
2x+8 +x =-x+x-4
3x+8 = -4
Subtract 8 from each side
3x+8-8 =-4-8
3x =-12
Divide by 3
3x/3 = -12/3
x = -4
Work problems are solved by first figuring out how much of the job they can do in each hour. Shawn can do 1/4 of the job in an hour and Ellie can do 1/6 of the job in an hour. 1/6+1/4=2/12+3/12=5/12. This means that they can do 5/12 of the job an hour. This means that together they can do the job in 2 2/5 hours. The foreman is obviously wrong because first of all Shawn can do it alone in 4 hours, so with Ellie he will do it faster, and second of all 2 2/5<5. Hope this helped!
