Square root each side
x-5=positive/negative 9
x=14, and -4
Explanation:
Basically, you can do it in many ways. But just, in my opinion, exactly linear algebra was made for such cases.
the optimal way is to do it with Cramer's rule.
First, find the determinant and then find the determinant x, y, v, u.
Afterward, simply divide the determinant of variables by the usual determinant.
eg. and etc.
I think that is the best way to solve it without a hustle of myriad of calculations reducing it to row echelon form and solving with Gaussian elimination.
Answer:
the third option, "what number, when added to negative four, is equal to negative five?"
Step-by-step explanation:
"what number, when added to negative four, is equal to negative five?" can be expressed as g + (- 4) = - 5, which is the same as in the equation.
i hope this helps! :D comment if you need any clarification.
There are 18 students in Grade 7, 10 are in band, so 10/18 = 0.56 are in band.
There are 12 students in Grade 8, 10 are in band, so 10/12 = 0.83 are in band.
Students in Grade 8 are more likely to be members of the band.
