How many solutions are there for the system x^2+4y^2=100 and 4y-x^2=-20

There are 5 solutions for this system.

x^2 + 4y^2 = 100  ____1
4y - x^2 = -20  ____2
Add both 1 & 2 together. x^2 gets cancelled
4y^2 + 4y = 80   (send 80 to the other side and divide by 4)
Then equation the becomes : y^2 + y -20 =0
Now factorise the equation: (y+5) (y-4) = 0
Solve for y :  y = -5 and y = 4
Using the values of y to find the values of x. From equation 1:
x^2 = 100 - 4y^2    x = /100 - 4y^2  (/ means square root) Replace values of y
y = -5, x = /100 - 4(-5)^2 = /100 - 100 = 0
y = 4, x = /100 - 4(4)^2 = / 100 - 64 = /36 = -6 or 6
Thus we have 6 solutions y = -5, 4 and x = -6, 0, 6

In triangle abc, the angle c is six times as large as angle
mote1985 [20]
The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees

a = 1st angle, b = 2nd angle, c = 3rd angle

c = 6a
b = a + 60
a + b + c = 180

a + (a + 60) + (6a) = 180
8a + 60 = 180
8a = 180 - 60
8a = 120
a = 120/8
a = 15 <=== here is one angle

b = a + 60
b = 15 + 60
b = 75 <=== and another one

c = 6a
c = 6(15)
c = 90 <=== and the last angle

A sales person earns a commission based on the number and type of vehicle sold. A person selling 6 cars and 3 trucks earns 4,800
AURORKA [14]
Assign variables to you unknowns.

c = $ cars
t = $ trucks

6c + 3t = 4800
8c + t = 4600

use substitution or elimination to solve the system of equations.

using elimination.. multiply second equation by -3 and add to the other to combine equations into one.

6c + 3t = 4800
-3(8c + t = 4600)
---------------------------
-18c + 0 = -9000
c = 9000/18
c = 500 $

use this in one of the equations to find the cost of a truck.

8(500) + t = 4600
4000 + t = 4600
t = 4600 - 4000
t = 600 $

question asks
2(500) + 3(600) =
1000 + 1800 = 2800 $
