Answer: 5x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3x+7
5x+7
(2,3) is your answer for the equation
The total number of fish bought was 320. And you know she bought two types of fish. The best way to solve this is guess and check. It would be the fastest. So she bought 7 times as many trigger-fish as parrot fish that means the number of trigger-fish bought was 7p. This means 320 = 7p +p. So all you do is take educated guesses for the number of parrot fish and check if it is right. So if she bought 50 parrot fish. 7(50) + 50 = 400. Close but a bit high. Lets keep guessing. 7(35) + 35 = 245. So now we know the answer is between 50 and 35. So lets try 40. 7(40) + 40 =320. That works so we know she bought 40 parrot fish and 280 trigger-fish.
the discriminant formula is b^2-4ac
so plug the values from each equation into the formula and solve, the result is the value of the discriminant
if the number is negative, there are no real roots/x-int
if it is 0 there is one real root/x-intercepts
if it is positive it has 2 real roots/x-int
and to find the actual solutions you have to plug the values into the quadratic formula
