First of all, x cannot ever equal -1 because if it does then in the original equation you'd be dividing by 0, which is not possible. anything divided by 0 is undefined.
I think the error was in the second step: x(x+1) = 2(x+1) because they didn't need to go from the first step to there. I'm assuming they multiplied both sides of the equation with (x+1) to get rid of the fraction, but since both sides have (x+1) as the denominator the (x+1) would've cancelled out instead of multiplying with the numerator.
Correction:
as u can see, in the second step of this correction, the (x+1)s on both sides cancel out so only the numerators remain.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
$7.5 plus $65 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We are trying to find the minimum she can make in one day. The minimum amount of hours she can work is 1, so find y when x=1:
y=7.5x+65
y=7.5(1)+65
y=7.5+65
P = 2(L + W)
P = 128
L = 2W + 4
128 = 2(2W + 4 + W)
128 = 2(3W + 4)
128 = 6W + 8
128 - 8 = 6W
120 = 6W
120/6 = W
20 = W <=== width is 20 ft
L = 2W + 4
L = 2(20) + 4
L = 40 + 4
L = 44 <=== length is 44 ft
Answer:
y = 20°
x = 35°
Explanation:
Equation's:
1) 2y + x + 105° = 180°
2) 3x + x + 2y = 180°
Make y subject in equation 2
3x + x + 2y = 180
4x + 2y = 180
2y = 180 - 4x
y = 90 - 2x
Insert this into equation 1
2(90 - 2x) + x + 105° = 180°
180 - 4x + x + 105 = 180
-3x = -105
x = 35°
Find value of y
y = 90 - 2x
y = 90 - 2(35)
y = 20°
