Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If 3m + 5 = 8

We can say 8 - 5 = 3m

So, 3 = 3m

So, m = 1.

1 x 3 = 3!

Answer:

m = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Plus -5 to both sides of the problem

5+-5+3 m=8+-5

Put together the alike terms

0+3 m=8+-5

3 m=8+-5

Put together the alike terms again

3 m = 3

Divide the sides by 3 then simplify and BAM! Answered. :P

3(5b-1)=5<br> solve for b<br><br> 4(3y-1)=20<br> solve for y

Gnom [1K]

3(5b-1)=5
Get rid of the brackets
15b-3=5
add 3 to both sides of the equation
15b=8
divide both sides of the equation by 15
b=0.53

4(3y-1)=20
12y-4=20
12y=24
y=0.5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$2.\\(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\x^2-16x=-8\\\\x^2-2(x)(8)=-8\\\\\text{We have}\ 2ab=2(x)(8).\ \text{Therefore}\ b=8.\\\\x^2-2(x)(8)=-8\qquad\text{add}\ 8^2=64\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x^2-2(x)(8)+8^2=-8+64\\\\(x-8)^2=56$

$5.\\2x^2+x-1=2\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\\\2x^2+x-3=0\\\\2x^2+3x-2x-3=0\\\\x(2x+3)-1(2x+3)=0\\\\(2x+3)(x-1)=0\iff 2x+3=0\ \vee\ x-1=0\\\\2x+3=0\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\2x=-3\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\boxed{x=-\dfrac{3}{2}}\\\\x-1=0\qquad\text{add 1 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=1}$

$6.\\2x^2-4x=0\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\x^2-2x=0\\\\x(x-2)=0\iff x=0\ \vee\ x-2=0\\\\\boxed{x=0}\\\\x-2=0\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=2}$

Solve the system of equations algebraically.<br><br> {Y=(x-2)^2+2<br> {Y+4=3x

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

(5, 11) and (2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x-2)² + 2

y + 4 = 3x

(x-2)² + 2 + 4 = 3x

x² - 4x + 4 + 6 = 3x

x² - 7x + 10 = 0

(x - 5)(x - 2) = 0

x - 5 = 0, x = 5

x - 2 = 0, x = 2

y = (5-2)² + 2 = 11

(5, 11)

y = (2-2)² + 2 = 2

(2, 2)
