Answer:
-12u + 11z
Step-by-step explanation:
The above expression cannot be simplified, for:
1) There is no common variable (one being <em>u</em>, and the other being <em>z</em>).
2) There are no common factors in between 12 & 11)
- Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
- Factors of 11: 1, 11

Step-by-step explanation:
xy + 10 = 0. => y = -10/x.
2x + 3y = 7. => 3y = -2x + 7, y = -2/3 x + 7/3.
When -10/x = -2/3 x + 7/3,
-10 = -2/3 x² + 7/3 x, 2/3 x² - 7/3 x - 10 = 0.
=> 2x² - 7x - 30 = 0
=> (2x + 5)(x - 6) = 0
=> x = -2.5 or x = 6.
dy/dx = d/dx [-10/x] = 10/x².
When x = -2.5, dy/dx = 10 / (-2.5)² = 1.6.
When x = 6, dy/dx = 10 / (6)² = 5/18.
Hence the gradients at the points are 1.6 and 5/18.
Answer:
112 Ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
2 Cups + 4 Pints + 2 Quarts = 14 Cups
14 Cups = 112 Ounces
5x+2y=7
7x-2y=5 its subtract not add
Any number inside the modulus sign becomes positive. This means
and so we have,

Solving these gives us


However if we check the second solution in the original equation we obtain
. This is false and so
can't be a solution.
Therefore the only solution is
.
(Note: I'm not sure why the second solution didn't work but when there's a modulus sign involved it always pays to check your final answers to be sure. I'll have a think about it but in case you find out before I do, I'd be interested to know in the comments.)
