Answer:
x = -5 ±4sqrt(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 5)^2 = 48
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x + 5)^2) = ±sqrt(48)
x+5 = ±sqrt(16*3)
x+5 = ±4sqrt(3)
Subtract 5 from each side
x = -5 ±4sqrt(3)
Answer:
A) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to get this but this is how I did it:
1. Multiply the second equation by 1/4 to get the same fraction for y as the one in the first equation
1/4 x + 1/8 y = 2
1/4 (1/3 x + 1/2 y = 4)
1/12 x + 1/8 y = 1
2. Subtract the first equation from the new equation
1/12 x + 1/8 y = 1
<u> - 1/4 x - 1/8 y = -2</u>
-1/6 x= -1
3. Divide both sides by -1/6
<u>-1/6</u> x= <u>-1</u>
-1/6 -1/6
x = 6
4. Substitute 4 in for x in the original equation:
1/4 (6) + 1/8y = 2
6/4 + 1/8y = 2
1/8y = 1/2
y = 4
21/25 first you would do 84/100 then you would simplify
Answer:
BD = 28
AC = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
4x − 2 = 3y − 1
3x = 3y − 3
Using elimination to solve the system of equations, subtract the second equation from the first.
(4x − 2) − 3x = (3y − 1) − (3y − 3)
4x − 2 − 3x = 3y − 1 − 3y + 3
x − 2 = 2
x = 4
Substitute into either equation to find y.
3(4) = 3y − 3
12 = 3y − 3
15 = 3y
y = 5
The length of BD is:
4(4) − 2 + 3(5) − 1 = 28
The length of AC is:
3(4) + 3(5) − 3 = 24
