You need to cross multiply
560=350+35x
210=35x
x=6
hope this helped

10 / 10+x = 35 / 56
560 = 350 + 35x
35x = 560 - 350
35x = 210
x = 210/35
x = 6

So, your final answer is 6

Hope this helps!

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4=6/8

6/8+1/8=7/8

because the question asks how much is left, we should subtract 7/8 from 1, leaving 1/8.

If x+y=12 and xy=15,find the value of (x^2+y^2)

Mice21 [21]

Answer: $x^2+y^2=\dfrac{105\pm 18\sqrt6}{2}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

EQ1: x + y = 12 --> x = 12 - y

EQ2: xy = 15

Substitute x = 12-y into EQ2 to solve for y:

(12 - y)y = 15

12y - y² = 15

0 = y² - 12y + 15

↓ ↓ ↓

a=1 b= -12 c=15

$.\ y=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{-(-12)\pm \sqrt{(-12)^2-4(1)(15)}}{2(1)}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{12\pm \sqrt{144-120}}{2}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{12\pm \sqrt{24}}{2}\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{12\pm 2\sqrt{6}}{2}\\\\\\.\quad =6\pm \sqrt{6}$

Now, let's solve for x:

$xy=15\\\\x(6\pm\sqrt6)=15\\\\x=\dfrac{15}{6\pm\sqrt6}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{15}{6\pm\sqrt6}\bigg(\dfrac{6\pm\sqrt6}{6\pm\sqrt6}\bigg)=\dfrac{6\pm \sqrt6}{2}$

Lastly, find x² + y² :

$y^2=(6\pm \sqrt6)^2\quad \rightarrow \quad y^2=36\pm 12\sqrt6 +6\quad \rightarrow \quad y^2=42\pm 12\sqrt6$

$x^2=\bigg(\dfrac{6\pm \sqrt6}{2}\bigg)^2\quad \rightarrow \quad x^2=\dfrac{42\pm 12\sqrt6}{4}\quad \rightarrow \quad x^2=\dfrac{21\pm 6\sqrt6}{2}$

$x^2+y^2=\dfrac{21\pm 6\sqrt6}{2}+42\pm 12\sqrt6\\\\\\.\qquad \quad = \dfrac{21\pm 6\sqrt6}{2}+\dfrac{84\pm 24\sqrt6}{2}\\\\\\. \qquad \quad = \dfrac{105\pm 18\sqrt6}{2}$
