Answer:
x^2 + 2x +1 = 2x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+1) = 2
multiplying both sides by x +1
(x +1) (x+1) = 2 (x+1)
x^2 + 2x +1 = 2x + 2
It depends on what variable you are tying to solve for first. Say you are trying to solve for x first and then y on the first problem you wrote.
In substitution you solve one of the equations for example with
6x+2y=-10
2x+2y=-10
you solve 2x+2y=-10 for x
2x+2y=-10
-2y = -2y (what you do to one side of the = you do to the other)
2x=-10-2y (to get the variable by its self you divide the # and the variable)
/2=/2 (-10/2=-5 and -2y/2= -y or -1y, they are the same either way)
x=-5-y
now you put that in your original equation that you didn't solve for:
6(-5-y)+2y=-10 solve for that
-30-6y+2y=-10 combine like terms
-30-4y=-10 get the y alone and to do this you first get the -30 away from it
+30=+30
-4y=20 divide the -4 from each side
/-4=/-4 (20/-4=-5)
y=-5
now the equation you previously solved for x can be solved for y.
x=-5-y
x=-5-(-5) a minus parenthesis negative -(- gives you a positive
-5+5=0
x=0
and now we have solved the problem. x=0 and y=-5
Answer: (f + 2) (f + 8)
It's hard to explain, but I suggest you use the AC method. Hope this helps!
Answer:
225
Step-by-step explanation:
Mary = 3x (3 times Carey)
Carey = x
Barry = x/2 (Because Carey read twice as many as Barry, it means he read half the amount Carey did)
3x + x + x/2 = 405
4x + x/2 = 405
8x/2 + x/2 (treat these as fractions) = 405
9x/2 = 405
9x = 810 (cross multiply)
x = 90
Mary = 3(90) 270
Carey = 90
Barry = 90/2 45
Mary - Barry
270 - 45 = 225
Hope this helps! :)
