Square the -5 then use substitution (just combine the numbers)
A) x -y =1
B) x * y =1
B) y = 1/x
A) x -(1/x) = 1
Multiplying both sides by "x"
A) x^2 -1 = x
A) x^2 -x -1 = 0
Solving by the quadratic formula
x = 1.618 and
y = .618
Interestingly, the number 1.6180339... is called the "phi ratio" or the "golden ratio".

Answer:
C. The number of responces
is also 46
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that:
means both p and q must hold;
means either p or q must hold.
From the diagram,
- the number of responses
is 46; - the number of responces
is also 46; - the number of responces
is 0; - the number of responces which are neuther p nor q is 20.
So, you can state that the correct answer is C
Answer:
72 sq. mi
Step-by-step explanation:
Breaking this down, we have 2 right triangles with sides of 3, 4, and 5 miles, and 3 rectangles with dimensions 3 x 5, 4 x 5, and 5 x 5 miles. Remember that the area of a triangle is 1/2 x b x h , where b and h are the triangle's base and height. The base and height of the triangles at the bases of the figure are 3 and 4, so each triangle has an area of 1/2 x 3 x 4 = 1/2 x 12 = 6 sq. mi, or 6 + 6 = 12 sq. mi together.
Onto the rectangles, we can find their area by multiplying their length by their width. Since the width of these rectangles is the same for all three - 5 mi - we can make our lives a little easier and just "glue" the lengths together, giving us a longer rectangle with a length of 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 mi. Multiplying the two, we find the area of the rectangles to be 5 x 12 = 60 sq. mi.
Adding this area to the triangle's area gives us a total area of 12 + 60 = 72 sq. mi.
