x^2 + 6xy + 8y2
4x^2 + 3xy + 2y^2 - 5x^2 + 2xy + 6y^2
= 4x^2 + 3xy + 2y^2 + -5x^2 + 3xy + 6y^2
Combine like terms:
= 4x^2 + 3xy + 2y^2 + -5x^2 + 3xy + 6y^2
= (4x^2 + -5x^2) + (3xy + 3xy) + (2y^2 + 6y^2)
= -x^2 + 6xy + 8y^2
Jy has hiked 17km
He is 2km short of being half of the way done with hicking
Let the total distance he hiked be xkm
Then 1/2x = 17 + 2km
1/2x = 19km
x = 19 × 2 = 38km
The total distance he covered was 38km.
Answer:
x < - 3
