Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the first sentence x (the number) is 2 more than another number (y). So, x+2=y. The sum of the squares of the two numbers is 42, meaning that \\ (x+2)^{2}+y^{2}=42. First, we square root the ENTIRE equation to get rid of the square. If you do one thing to one side, you have to do it to the other. After this, we have x+2+y=\sqrt{42}. Now, we subtract 2 from the other side to isolate the variable. You can isolate either one but normally I go for x. Now we have x+y=\sqrt{42}+2. Now, we want to get y to the other side so we subtract it from the left side and the right side which gives us x=-y+\sqrt{42}+2. now we know what X is equal to. Now we plug in x for \\ (x+2)^{2}+y^{2}=42, which gives us          (-y+\sqrt42}+2+2)^{2}+y^{2}=42. Now we only have one variable which is what we want. Next, we square root the entire thing to get rid of the squares, which gives us -y+\sqrt{42}+4+y=\sqrt{42}. I got lost in my work. I must have done something wrong I cant find out. If anyone wants to pick up where I left off go ahead but there's a timer and I have one minute left. I cant finish the problem in a minute. I'm sorry and hopefully I lead you somewhere.

How do you find a value of x so that f(x) = 7?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

When f(x) = 7, x is equal to 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

When looking at this graph, we are looking for where the line hits a point where y is equal to 7. That's because f(x) is essentially the same thing as y.

The point in which the graph hits y = 7 is (5, 7). This means the x value we need is 5.

How much money does Carl earn per hour? Show your work. You will not receive full credit for a
Komok [63]
  • From the table showing in the diagram, Let's pick the data in the first row:

Time = 3 hours

Money earned = $45

  • The amount of money Carl earns per hour is calculated as:

3 hours = $45

1 hour = ?

Cross Multiply

1 hour x $45 / 3 hours

= $15

  • Let's confirm our answer using the data in the last column

Time = 10 hours

Money earned = $150

The amount of money Carl earns per hour is calculated as:

10 hours = $150

1 hour = ?

Cross Multiply

1 hour x $150 / 10 hours

= $15

Therefore, the amount of money Carl earns per hour is $15
