Answer:

  • (2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given system:</u>

  • y + 4 = x
  • 10x + 2y = 16

<u>Substitute x into the second equation:</u>

  • 10(y + 4) + 2y = 16
  • 10y + 40 + 2y = 16
  • 12y = -24
  • y = -2

<u>Find x:</u>

  • x = -2 + 4
  • x = 2

Answer:

x = 2 and y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system :-

y + 4 = x

10x + 2y = 16

Solve the system by substitution:-

Let,

y + 4 = x ...(1)

10x + 2y = 16 ...(2)

Solve for y;

Substitute y + 4 as x in the eq.(2)

10( y + 4 ) + 2y = 16

  • Distribute 10.

10y + 40 + 2y = 16

  • Combine like terms.

12y + 40 = 16

  • Move constant to the right-hand side and change their sign.

12y = 16 - 40

  • Subtract 16 from -40.

12y = -24

  • Divide both side by 12.

12y / 12 = -24/12

Hence, y = -2

Solve for x.

  • Substitute the value of y in eq.(1)

<u>-2 + 4</u> = x

  • Add -2 and 4.

Hence, 2 = x

State the number of real zeros and what they are for "3x^2+5x-2" pleas help me:'(
Lady bird [3.3K]
This can be solved by factoring.

First, set the expression equal to zero.

3x^2+5x-2=0

Then, find two the factors of  ac whose sum is b.

6, -1

Split b into these two factors.

3x^2+6x-x-2=0

Next, factor by grouping.

3x(x+2)-1(x+2) = (3x-1)(x+2) = 0

By the Zero Product Property, set each factor equal to zero.

3x-1 = 0 \\ x = 1/3

x+2=0 \\ x = -2

These are the solutions. The Complex Conjugate Root Theorem and the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra both state that, in essence, real and imaginary solutions come in pairs of two and every polynomial of degree n has exactly n complex roots, but real roots are also complex roots. That sounds confusing, but this just means that you're done. Your answers are -2 and 1/3. There are two real roots.

Tristen is building 3 trophies using Legos. He needs 324 total Legos. Tristen uses 220 Legos for the largest trophy and 135 Lego
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: 166

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of trophies = 3

Total Legos required for all trophies = 324

Number of Legos for largest trophy(A) = 220

Number of Legos for smallest trophy(B) = 135

Number of Legos required for final trophy(C)

=?

Total Legos = [Number of Legos for largest trophy(A) + Number of Legos for smallest trophy(B) + Number of Legos required for final trophy(C)]

324 = 220 +135 + C

324 = 355 + C

324 - 355 = C

-31 = C

135 + 31 = 166
