Answer:
The solution is -22
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>The solution of an equation is the value of the variable of the equation</em>
∵ -(4x - 3) = -7(9 + x)
→ Simplify each side
∵ -(4x) - -(3) = -7(9) + -7(x)
∴ (-4x) - (-3) = -63 + (-7x)
→ Remember (-)(-) = (+) and (-)(+) = (-)
∴ -4x + 3 = -63 - 7x
→ Add 7x to both sides
∴ -4x + 7x + 3 = -63 - 7x + 7x
∴ 3x + 3 = -63
→ Subtract 3 from both sides
∵ 3x + 3 - 3 = -63 - 3
∴ 3x = -66
→ Divide both sides by 3
∴ x = -22
∴ The solution is -22
Answer:
32 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total number of cups, we have to convert the measures that are not in cups to cups and add
1 quart = 4 cups
4 quarts = 4 x4 = 16 cups
1 pint = 2 cups
6 pints = 2 x 6 = 12 pints
total number of cups = 16 + 12 + 4 = 32 cups
x² - 14x + 46 = 0
subtract 46 from both-side
x² - 14x = -46
Add the square of the half of the co-efficient of x
x² - 14x + (-7)² = -46 + 7²
(x-7)² = -46 + 49
(x-7)² =3
Take the square root of both-side
x-7 = ±√3
x-7= ±1.732
Add 7 to both-side of the equation.
x= 7 ± 1.732
Eithe x= 7 + 1.732 or x= 7 - 1.732
x=8.732 or x=5.268
Therefore x = 8.732 , 5.268
Just plot the points on a graph.
