Factored Form:
x^2 - 4x - 5
Simplifying:
x^2 + - 4x + - 5 = 0
Reorder the terms:
- 5 + - 4x + x^2 = 0
Solving for variable " x":
Subproblem 1:
Set the factor ( - 1 + - 1x) equal to Zero and attempt to solve.
Simplifying:
- 1 + - 1x = 0
Solving:
- 1 + - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add 1 to each side of equation:
- 1 + 1 + - 1x = 0 + 1
Combine Like Terms: 0 + 1 = 1
x = - 1
Divide each side by - 1
x = - 1
Simplifying: x = - 1
Subproblem 2: Set the factor (5 + - 1x) equal to Zero attempt to solve
Simplifying:
5 + - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add - 5 to each side of the equation
5 + - 5 + - 1x = 0 + 5
Combine Like terms: 5 + - 5 = 0
0 + - 1x = 0 + - 5
- 1x = 0 + - 5
Combine Like Terms: 0 + - 5 = - 5
- 1x = - 5
Divide each side by - 1
x = 5
Simplifying:
x = 5
Solution:
x = { - 1, 5}
Answer when factored:
(x + 1)(x - 5)
hope that helps!!!
We have that
<span>1/4 x + 2/3 y = 5 ----> multiply by 12 both sides---> 3x+8y=60
1/2 x + 3/2 y = 11---> multiply by 2 both sides----> x+3y=22
therefore
the answer is the option
</span><span>B. 3x + 8y = 60 ; x + 3y = 22</span>
Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.
