To solve this, add 17 to both sides:
x = -25 + 17
x = -8
Oranges = x
apples = y
8x + 11y = 15.22
x = 0.50
8(0.50) + 11y = 15.22
4 + 11y = 15.22
11y = 15.22 - 4
11y = 11.22
y = 11.22/11
y = 1.02 <== cost of each apple
Answer:
Since we have the information for Angles 1 and 3, and they are vertical, we can set them equal to each other. Once we have done this we can find the measures of them combined, and subtract it from 360 in order to only have the measure of 2 and its vertical angle. Finally, all we need to do now is divide the remaining measure by 2, and this will give us the measure of angle 2.
Angle 1=Angle 3
4x+30=2x+48
2x+30=48
2x=18
x=9
Angle 1=4(9)+30
Angle 1=36+30
Angle 1=66
Angle 1=Angle 3
Angle 1+ Angle 3=132
360-132=228
228/2=114
Angle 2= 114
120/6=20 20*10=200
The answer is 200
40x+8x^2=0 can be solved for x (there are two solutions):
Divide all 3 terms by the greatest common multiple (which is 8x):
40x+8x^2=0
------------- -----
8x 8x
5 + x = 0 produces the root x = - 5.
Setting 8x = 0 and solving for x produces the root x = 0.
Be certain to check these results. substitute x = -5 into 40x+8x^2=0. Is the resulting equation true or false? Next, subs. x=-5 into 40x+8x^2=0. Is the resulting equation true or false?
