Givens

Andrea: K

Me: 5k - 4

Sum

k + 5k - 4 = 14

Solve

6k - 4 = 14              Add 4 to both side.

6k - 4 + 4 = 14 + 4

6K = 18                  Divide by 6

k = 18/6

k = 3

Is (-3, 2) a solution of -4r - 10y< - 9?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

<em>The point (-3,2) is not a solution of the inequality</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Inequality</u>

Inequalities relate the left and the right side of an expression with an operator other than the equal sign.

The inequality given in the question is

-4r - 10y< - 9

There are many combinations of r and y that make inequality be true. For example, for r=1 and y=1

-4(1) - 10(1)< - 9

-14< - 9

This relation is true since -14 is less than -9.

Also, there are many combinations that make the given inequality be false.

For example, for r=2 and y=-1

-4(2) - 10(-1)< - 9

-8+10

2

This inequality is false.

Let's test the point (-3,2)

-4(-3) - 10(2)< - 9

12-10

2

Which is false, thus the point (-3,2) is not a solution of the inequality

Activity 4: Factor Then solve
Arturiano [62]
Very complex, you should ask each individual question, or give more points
general strategy:
get 1 side to equal 0
factor
set each factor to 0
solve


1. factor out the x and set each to zero
x(x+7)=0
x=0

x+7=0
subtract 7
x=-7
x=0 or -7



2. factor out the 6s
6s(s+3)=0
6s=0
s=0

s+3=0
subtract 3
s=-3
s=-3 or 0



3.  I'm assuming that the equation was supposed to be t^2+8t+16 so
find what 2 numbers multiply to get 16 and add to get 8
the numbers are 4 and 4
factor
(x+4)(x+4)=0
x+4=0
subtract 4
x=-4




4. find what 2 numbers multipy to get 25 and add to get -10
the numbers are -5 and -5
factor
(x-5)(x-5)=0
set each to zero
x-5=0
add 5
x=5



5. subtract 16 from both sides
h^2+6h-16=0
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -16 and add to get 6
the numbers are -6 and 10
factor
(h-6)(h+10)=0
set each to zero
h-6=0
add 6
h=6

h+10=0
subtract 10
h=-10
h=-10 or 6



6.subtract 5x from both sides
x^2-5x-14=0
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -14 and add to get -5
the numbers are -7 and 2
factor
(x-7)(x+2)=0
set each to zero
x-7=0
add 7
x=7

x+2=0
subtract 2
x=-2
x=-2 or 7




7.add 2r^2 to both sides
2r^2+11r+15=0
difficult so multiply 2 and 15 and get 30
not factor and find what 2 numbers multiply to get 30 and add to get 11
the numbers are 5 nd 6
split 11 up into 5 and 6
2r^2+6r+5r+15=0
group and factor
(2r^2+6r)+(5r+15)=0
factor
2r(r+3)+5(r+3)=0
reverse distribute
(2r+5)(r+3)=0
set each to zero
2r+5=0
subtract 5
2r=-5
divide 2
r=-5/2

r+3=0
subtract 3
r=-3
r=-3 or -5/2




8. this is a difference of 2 perfect squares in which if you have
x^2-y^2 that factors out of (x-y)(x+y) so
x^2-25=0
x^2-5^2=0
(x-5)(x+5)=0
set each to zero
x-5=0
add 5
x=5

x+5=0
subtract 5
x=-5
x=-5 or 5



9. differnce of 2 perfect squares
81-4x^2=0
9^2-(2x)^2=0
(9-2x)(9+2x)=0
set each to zero
9-2x=0
add 2x to both sides
9=2x
divde 2
9/2=x

9+2x=0
subtract 9 from both sidees
2x=-9
divide 2
x=-9/2
x=-9/2 or 9/2


10. subtract 12s from both sides
4s^2-12s+9=0
multiply 4 and 9 and get 36
find what 2 numbers multiply to get 36 and add to get -12
the numbers are -6 and -6
split up the -12s into -6s and -6s
4s^2-6s-6s+9=0
group
(4s^2-6s)+(-6s+9)=0
factor
2s(2s-3)+(-3)(2s-3)=0
reverse distribute
(2s-3)(2s-3)=0
set each to zero
2s-3=0
add 3
2s=3
divide 2
s=3/2









ANWERS:
1. x=0 or -7
2. s=-3 or 0
3. x=-4
4. x=5
5. h=-10 or 6
6. x=-2 or 7
7. r=-3 or -5/2
8. x=-5 or 5
9. x=-9/2 or 9/2
10. s=3/2

7*7*7*7*7 written in exponential form
sasho [114]

Answer:

7^5

Step-by-step explanation:

7x7x7x7x7 is equal to 7^5. Depending on how much sevens there are, that is the power number. In this case there are 5 sevens so that means it is 7^5.
