The solution is the point of intersection between the two equations.
Assuming you have a graphing calculator or a program to lets you graph equations (I use desmos) you simply put in the equetions and note down the coordinates of the point of intersection.
In the graph the first equation is in blue and the second in red.
The point of intersection = the solution = (-6 , -1)
If you dont have access to a graphing calculator you could draw the graphs by hand;
1) Draw a table of values for each equation; you do this by setting three or four values for x and calculating its image in y (you can use any values of x)
y = 0.5 x + 2 (Im writing 0.5 instead of 1/2 because I find its easier in this format)
x | y
-1 | 1.5 * y = 0.5 (-1) + 2 = 1.5
0 | 2 * y = 0.5 (0) + 2 = 2
1 | 2.5 * y = 0.5 (1) + 2 = 2.5
2 | 3 * y = 0.5 (2) + 2 = 3
y = x + 5
x | y
-1 | 4 * y = (-1) + 5 = 4
0 | 5 * y = (0) + 5 = 5
1 | 6 * y = (1) + 5 = 6
2 | 7 * y = (2) + 5 = 7
2) Plot these point on the graph
I suggest to use diffrent colored points or diffrent kinds of point markers (an x or a dot) to avoid confusion about which point belongs to which graph
3) Using a ruler draw a line connection all the dots of one graph and do the same for the other
4) The point of intersection is the solution
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
r²+8r=−7
Step 1: Subtract -7 from both sides.
r²+8r−(−7)=−7−(−7)
r²+8r+7=0
Step 2: Use quadratic formula with a=1, b=8, c=7.
r=

Answer:
78.46
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
Pop. Standard deviation = 1.61
Sample standard deviation = 2.15
Sample mean = 7.47
Sample size = 45
Recall that
Test stat for chi square
= (n - 1) (sample standard dev/pop standard dev)^2
= 45 - 1 (2.15/1.61)^2
= 44(1.3354)^2
= 44 × 1.78329
= 78.46
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So in this example we'll be using the difference of squares which essentially states that:
or another way to think of it would be:
. So in this example you'll notice both terms are perfect squares. in fact x^n is a perfect square as long as n is even. This is because if it's even it can be split into two groups evenly for example, in this case we have x^8. so the square root is x^4 because you can split this up into (x * x * x * x) * (x * x * x * x) = x^8. Two groups with equal value multiplying to get x^8, that's what the square root is. So using these we can rewrite the equation as:

Now in this case you'll notice the degree is still even (it's 4) and the 4 is also a perfect square, and it's a difference of squares in one of the factors, so it can further be rewritten:

So completely factored form is: 
I'm assuming that's considered completely factored but you can technically factor it further. While the identity difference of squares technically only applies to difference of squares, it can also be used on the sum of squares, but you need to use imaginary numbers. Because
. and in this case a=x^2 and b=-4. So rewriting it as the difference of squares becomes:
just something that might be useful in some cases.
