Substitution:
2x + (6(1/2x - 6)) = 19
2x + 3x - 36 = 19
5x - 36 = 19
+ 36
5x = 55
÷ 5
x = 11
y = (1/2 × 11) - 6
y = 5.5 - 6
y = -0.5
Elimination:
y = 1/2x - 6
- y
0 = 1/2x - 6 - y
+ 6
1/2x - y = 6
3x - 6y = 36
2x + 6y = 19
(add)
5x = 55
÷ 5
x = 11
y = (1/2 × 11) - 6
y = 5.5 - 6
y = -0.5
I hope this helps! Let me know if you need me to explain why I did some things :)
I'd use synthetic div. here, with 2 as my divisor:
________________
2 / 1 -11 18
2 -18
----------------------------
1 -9 0
Note that the coefficients of the missing factor are given here and are 1 and -9. Thus, (x-9) is the missing factor.
Answer:
y=5x
Step-by-step explanation:
A product means multiplication, and you need to multiply x by 5 in order to make the product have a factor of 5.
Answer:
x = -2+√3i and -2-√3i
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the general formula is expressed as;
x = -b±√b²-4ac/2a
Given the expression
x²+4x+7 = 0
a = 1, b = 4 and c = 7
Substitute
x = -4±√4²-4(1)(7)/2(1)
x = -4±√16-28/2
x = -4±√-12/2
x = -4±√4*-3/2
x = -4±2√-3/2
x = -4±2√3i/2
x = -4+2√3i/2 and -4-2√3/2
x = -2+√3i and -2-√3i
