Answer:

Step 1: Solve Square Root

Vx+3=x-3

x+3=(x-3)^2 (squared both sides)

x+3=x^2-6x+9

x+3-(x^2-6x+9)=0

(-x+1)(x-6)=0 (factor left side of equation)

-x+1=0 or x-6=0

x=1 or x=6

When you plug it in to check

1 (Doesn't Work)

6 (Work)

Therefore, 6 is your solution.

Answer:

1) $\sqrt{9}$ and $\sqrt{16}$ (between 3 and 4)

Explanation: $\sqrt{9}$ and $\sqrt{16}$ are the closest WHOLE squares root to $\sqrt{12}$ ; any other square roots wouldn't give us a whole number, or they're farther away from

2) $-\sqrt{144}$ and $-\sqrt{169}$ (between -(12) and -(13))

3) $-\sqrt{36}$ and $-\sqrt{49}$ (between -(6) and -(7))

A first number plus twice a second number is 11. Twice the first number plus the second totals 16. Find the numbers.

satela [25.4K]

<h3>The first number, x, is equal to 7.</h3><h3>The second number, y, is equal to 2.</h3>

x + 2y = 11

2x + y = 16

We can subtract 2y from both sides of the first equation to get a value for x.

x = 11 - 2y

Because we have a value for x, we can plug it into the second equation.

2(11 - 2y) + y = 16

Distributive property.

22 - 4y + y = 16

Combine like terms.

22 - 3y = 16

Subtract 22 from both sides.

-3y = -6

Divide both sides by -3.

y = 2

Now that we have a value for y, we can plug it into either equation to solve for x.

x + 2(2) = 11

x + 4 = 11

Subtract 4 from both sides.

x = 7

1. Name a pair of supplementary angles in this figure.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

FEJ and JED

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary means that the pair of angles add up to 180° or a straight angle. FEJ and JED are both 90° and so they add up to 180° But there are many pairs of angles that are NOT 90° that add up to 180° (but they just weren't in the answer choices)
