Since:
ax(2x + y - 5) = 6x^2 +3xy - 15x,
we should factor X out of the second equation to find out the value of a:
6x^2 + 3xy - 15x =
x(6x + 3y - 15),
Now that we factored X out, to find a, we need to find the other common factor:
(6x + 3y - 15) / (2x + y - 5),
which is 3.
Hence the value of a is 3
Answer:
A solution to a system of equations is a set of values for the variable that satisfy all the equations simultaneously. In order to solve a system of equations, one must find all the sets of values of the variables that constitutes solutions of the system.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the smaller number is x, then the larger number has to be 20 - x in order for the arithmetic mean to be 10, as their sum must be 20.
If the geometric mean is 8 the product of the numbers has to be 64 and so the larger number is 64/x
Solving 64/x = 20 - x gives the quadratic x^2 -20x +64 = 0 so x = 4 or 16.
The two numbers are 4 and 16.
Answer:
8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok lets on the biggest square we have 17 cm
17cm is the hypotenuse for the right triangle
The second largest's area is 225 cm^2
Sq root of 225 cm^2, is 15
To find x, lets plug the info we have to the pythagorean theorom
The side length of the smallest Square is 8 cm
