The answer is -14


Explanation:

x - 8 = 2x + 6

We move all term to the left

x - 8 - ( 2x + 6 ) = 0

We get rid of parentheses

x - 2x - 6 - 8 = 0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1x - 14 = 0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other term to the right

-x = 14
x = 14/-1
x = -14

maxonik [38]

You do not need to use the remainder theorem to find p(3). Just plugin 3 where the x is located in

x^4 + x^3 - x^2 - 2x

3^4 + 3^3 - 3^2 - 2(3) = 93

Find the conjugate and product of<br><br>2-i5 ​
WITCHER [35]

Answer: 2+i5,\ 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Complex number is 2-i5

Its conjugate is obtained by changing the sign of the original number i.e. 2+i5

The product of the two numbers is

\Rightarrow (2-i5)(2+i5)=2^2-(5i)^2\quad \quad [(x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2]\\\\\Rightarrow (2-i5)(2+i5)=4-25i^2\\\\\Rightarrow (2-i5)(2+i5)=4+25=29

Solve the system <br> {f (x) = 2x-1<br> {g (x) = x^2-4
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

2 sets of possible solutions:

x=3, y = 5

and

x=-1, y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the graphical method, (see attached)

you can graph both equations and find their intersection points.

From the attached plot, you can see that the graphs intersect at (3,5) and (-1,-3)

Alternatively, you can solve this numerically by solving the following system of equations. You will get the same answer.

y = 2x + 1 ------------------- eq. (1)

y = x² - 4 ------------------- eq. (2)
