P2-q2=7 and p-q=2. Find the value of p + q.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

p + q = 13/4

Step-by-step explanation:

p² - q² = 7

p - q = 2

Use substitution.

p = 2 + q

(2 + q)² - q² = 7

Expand (2 + q)² with FOIL - first, outer, inner, last

(2 + q)(2 + q)

4 + 2q + 2q + q²

4 + 4q + q²

Subtract q².

4 + 4q + q² - q² = 7

4 + 4q = 7

Combine like-terms.

4q = 3

Divide by 4 to isolate q.

q = 3/4

Plug q into the equation to find p.

p - q = 2

p - (3/4) = 2

Add 3/4 to both sides.

p = 11/4

Add p and q.

11/4 + 3/4

= 13/4

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

x=0; x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

so first you do (x+2)^2 which is x^2+2x+4

4x^2 +8x +16 = 16

Subtract 16 from both sides

4x^2 +8x = 0

factor out 4x:

4x(x+2) = 0

PLEASE HELP AND EXPLAIN!
Neko [114]

Answer:

12 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 2x+x=18

2) Now solve 2x+x=18

Add alike terms

3x=18

Now divide both sides by 3 (3x/3 and 18/3)

x=6

So Hannah is 6 years old. Her sister must be 12.

A can holds 753.6 cubic centimeters of juice. The can has a diameter of 8 centimeters. What is the height of the can?
Tresset [83]

height = 15 cm

the volume (V) of a cylindrical can is

V = πr²h ( r is the radius and h the height )

here d = 8 cm ⇒ r = 4 cm

π × 4² × h = 753.6

16πh = 753.6 ( divide both sides by 16π )

h = 753.6 / 16π = 14.99 ≈ 15 cm
