<span>6x + 10y = 32 (mult. eq by 2)
6x + 2y = 22
subtract: 
8y = 10

y = 1 0/8 = 1.25
x = 16 - 5y = 9.75
cost/lb of walnuts = $1.25
cost/lb of chocolate chips = $9.75</span>

Solve for all possible values of x.
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Option d)  x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

\sqrt{x-9}+4=8

Solve for x

Subtract 4 both sides

\sqrt{x-9}+4-4=8-4

\sqrt{x-9}=4

squared both sides

(x-9)=(+/-)4^2

(x-9)=(+/-)16

Adds 9 both sides

x=9(+/-)16

x1=9(+)16=25

x2=9(-)16=-7

<u><em>Verify </em></u>

1) For x=25

\sqrt{25-9}=4

\sqrt{16}=4

4=4 ----> is true

therefore

x=25 is a solution

2) For x=-7

\sqrt{-7-9}=4

\sqrt{-16}=4

The radicand cannot be a negative number

therefore

x=-7 is not a solution

Evaluate the expression when x = 8 and y = 1.
Rzqust [24]
The answer should be 4.

First, simplify \frac{8}{2} to 4. Your problem should look like: 4 x 1. 
Second, multiply. 4 x 1 = 4 so that is your answer.

Also, 
to start the equation up, make sure to add in the numbers in replace for the letters. Your problem to start with should look like: \frac{8}{2(1)}.
