Yes, it is very important otherwise some teachers may count the problem wrong.
17²-8²=225
√225= 15
therefore both x and y are 15 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
a + 2b = 17
Also,
2a + b = 4
By adding the above expressions we get,
a + 2b + 2a + b = 17 + 4
3a + 3b = 21.
3 (a + b) = 21
a + b = 21/3
a + b = 7 Let us take 'b' = 10
a + 10 = 7
a = 7 - 10
a = -3
Now let's check by verifying by putting a = -3 and b = 10 in the previous expressions
a + 2b = 17
-3 + (2 × 10) = 17
-3 + 20 = 17
17 = 17
2a + b = 4
(2 × -3) + 10 = 4
-6 + 10 = 4
4 = 4
Therefore, a = -3 and b = 10 [(-3,10)] is the solution.
Answer:
f(5) = 75
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is f(x) = 2x^2 + x(100 - 15x).
Evaluate this function at x = 5: replace each instance of x with 5:
f(5) = 2(5)^2 + 5(100 - 15·5)
Order of operations rules require evaluating the expression enclosed in parentheses first. We get:
f(5) = 2(5)^2 + 5(100 - 15·5)
= 50 + (100 - 75), so that:
f(5) = 50 + 25 = 75
f(5) = 75
