Answer:

  • (-oo, -6]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

  • 3x + 8 ≤ x - 4
  • 3x - x ≤ -4 - 8
  • 2x ≤ -12
  • x ≤ -6
  • x = (-oo, -6]

Solve by addition method <br>3x+y=8 <br>2x-y=7
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

(3,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the system of equations:

3x+y=8\\2x-y=7

As directed, add straight down. The y-variable will cancel:

5x=15

Now, divide both sides by 5. The left cancels:

x=3

So x is 3.

Now, substitute 3 for x in either of the equations:

3x+y=8

Substitute 3 for x:

3(3)+y=8

Multiply:

9+y=8

Subtract 9 from both sides:

y=-1

So, our answer is: x=3, y=-1 or (3,-1).

And we are done :)

Determine the number of real solutions of -2x2 + 5x - 3 = 0.
andrew11 [14]

-2x^2 + 5x -3 =0

Find the discriminate:

In the given formula a = -2, b = 5 and c = -3

The discriminate is found using the formula b^2 - 4(ac)

Replace the letters with their values:

5^2 - 4(-2*-3)

25 - 4*6

25-24 = 1

When the discriminate is greater than or equal to 0, there are two real solutions.

The answer is c) 2

Which equation is a function of x?
lana [24]

Answer:

If you input a value of x then we get the output f(x) = y, which is the function of x. This is a function of x. Hence, x² = y is a function of x.
