Answer:

10 and 16, x+(x+6)=26

Step-by-step explanation:

Michelle has an age we don't know, so we put her age as x.

Yogi is 6 years older than her, so her age is x+6

Michelle=x

Yogi=x+6

we know both their ages equal 26. so we set it up as

x+(x+6)=26

combining like terms we get

2x+6=26

subtract 6 from both sides

2x=20

divide both sides by 2

x=10

now that we have the value for x, we plug it into their original ages

Michelle is 10, because her age is just x.

Yogi is 16, because her age is x+6

What is the slope intercept form of this equation 6x+4y=8
hodyreva [135]

The slope intercept form is first y = mx + b, and once you use algebraic to get that you'd find that the slope intercept form of that equation is y = -3/2x + 2.

Solve. -7x+1-10x^2=0
telo118 [61]

Answer:

-7x+1-10x^2=0

-10x^2-7x+1=0

quadratic\:equation:- ax^2+bx+c=0

solutions:-\\\\x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

For \\A=-10\\B=-7\\C=1

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-7\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-7\right)^2-4\left(-10\right)\cdot \:1}}{2\left(-10\right)}

\sqrt{\left(-7\right)^2-4\left(-10\right)\cdot \:1}=\sqrt{89}

x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-7\right)\pm \sqrt{89}}{2\left(-10\right)}

x_1=\frac{-\left(-7\right)+\sqrt{89}}{2\left(-10\right)},\:x_2=\frac{-\left(-7\right)-\sqrt{89}}{2\left(-10\right)}

\frac{-\left(-7\right)+\sqrt{89}}{2\left(-10\right)}=-\frac{7+\sqrt{89}}{20}

\frac{-\left(-7\right)-\sqrt{89}}{2\left(-10\right)}=\frac{\sqrt{89}-7}{20}

x=\frac{\sqrt{89}-7}{20}
