Solve the following system of equations by linear combination: 2d + e = 8 d – e = 4

1 answer:

Because there is a +e and a -e in the two equations we can simply add them together to solve for d...

2d+e+d-e=8+4 combine like terms

3d=12 divide by 3

d=4, now use this d in either original equation to solve for e...<span>d–e=4 so

4-e=4 subtract 4

-e=0

e=0

So the solution, where the lines intersect graphically, is the point (4, 0)</span>

Given that the quadratic equation has equal roots (k^2-1)x^2-2kx-3k-1=0

Alik [6]

Answer:

(See explanation for further details)

Step-by-step explanation:

The real expression is:

$(k^{2}-1)\cdot x{{2} - 2\cdot k \cdot x - 3\cdot k + 1 = 0$

The general equation for the second-order polynomial is:

$x = \frac{2\cdot k \pm \sqrt{4\cdot k^{2}-4\cdot (k^{2}-1)\cdot (-3\cdot k + 1)}}{k^{2}-1}$

This condition must be observed for the case of a quadratic equation with equal roots:

$4\cdot k^{2} - 4\cdot (k^{2}-1)\cdot (-3\cdot k + 1) = 0$

$k^{2} + (k^{2}-1)\cdot (3\cdot k + 1) = 0$

$k^{2} + 3\cdot k^{3} - 3\cdot k - k^{2}-1 = 0$

$3\cdot k^{3} - 3\cdot k - 1 = 0$

Answer:

3.7hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

A car travels 360 miles in 8 hours

the speed is calculated as

speed= distance/time

speed= 360/8

speed= 45mph

Step two:

How much time will it take traveling 168 miles?

having found the speed, which is the rate at which the car is tavelling

time= distance/speed

time= 168/45

time= 3.7hours
