Answer:

x = 1,  x = 2,  x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

(x^2-4x)^2+7x^2-28x+12=0 \\\\(x(x-4))^2+7x(x-4)+12=0\\\\\text{Let's note }X = x(x-4)\text{ the equation becomes}\\\\X^2+7X+12=0\\\\\text{The sum of the zeroes is -7=-3+(-4) and the product is 12=(-4)*(-3).}\\\\\text{Wo we can factorise.}\\\\X^2+7X+12=X^2+4X+3X+12=X(X+4)+3(X+4)=(X+4)(X+3)=0\\\\X=-4 \ \ or \ \ X=-3

So we need to solve:

x(x-4)=-4 \ \ or \ \ x(x-4)=-3\\\\ x^2-4x-4=(x-2)^2=0 \ \ or \ \ x^2-4x+3=(x-1)(x-3)=0

So, the solutions are x = 2, x = 1, x = 3

Thank you

Abigail”s car used 9 gallons of gas to travel 378 miles. How many gallons of gas would she need to travel 210 miles?
pochemuha

Answer: 5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to know how many miles we can get by on a gallon of gas. To find this, we need to divide 378 miles by 9 gallons.

378/9 = 42

42 miles per gallon.

Now, we need to find how many gallons of gas it will take Abigail to travel 210. To find this, we simply divide 210 by 42.

210/42 = 5

It will take Abigail 5 gallons of gas to travel 210 miles.

A few years​ ago, a total of 2669 thousand people lived in the metropolitan areas of Las​ Vegas, Nevada, and​ Sacramento, Califo
aniked [119]
Let's make equation for this problem. Let's say the population of LV is x, then Sacramento will be x+275 since <span>Sacramento had 275 thousand more residents than Las Vegas. Remember that their total population is 2669, so your equation will be </span>x+275 +x=2669 

If you solve this equation, you have x=1197, that is population of LV. So Sacramento is 1472.

If x varies inversely as y, and x=27 when y=6 find x when y=2
kondaur [170]

For this case we have that the inverse variation is defined as:

y = \frac {k} {x}

Where:

k: It is the constant of proportionality

According to the statement we have:

x = 27\\y = 6\\6 = \frac {k} {27}

We find the constant of proportionality:

k = 27 * 6\\k = 162

Then we find the value of x when y = 2:

2 = \frac {162} {x}\\x = \frac {162} {2}\\x = 81

Answer:

x = 81

How many solutions does the following system of equations have?<br> v=3x +2<br> 2v=5x+8
Alja [10]

Answer:

The answer is C, zero solutions.  

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5/2x + 2

2y = 5x + 8

Multiply 2 to the first equation.  

2y = 5x + 4

Compare it with the other equation

2y = 5x + 4

2y = 5x + 8

Cancel 2y and 5x on both sides.  

Remaining:

4 = 8

4 ≠ 8.  Therefore, the answer is C, zero solutions.
