Answer:
28?
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to do this you first have to solve the parenthesis. Why because the pemdas tells you so, first parenthesis then exponents then multiplication then division then addition and then subtraction. So first subtract 7 from 9 to get (2)^-3 now multiply 2 3 times. -2*-2*-2 to get -8
Hope this helps
Answer: q = 8
Step-by-step explanation: Isolate your variable by dividing each side of the equation by factors that do not contain any variable.
I hope this helps you out. :)
Lets call those two unknown numbers a, b and write the info in the problem as equations:
a*b = 30
a + b = 40
lets solve for a in the second equation and substitute in the first:
<span>a + b = 40
</span>a = 40 - b
therefore:
<span>a*b = 30
</span>(40 - b)b = 30
40b - b^2 = 30
b^2 - 40b + 30 = 0
if we apply the general quadratic equation to solve we have:
b = (40 +- √(1600 - 120))/2
b = (40 +- √(1480<span>))/2
</span>b = (40 +- 38.47)/2
There are two solutions:
<span>b1 = (40 + 38.47)/2
</span><span>b1 = 39.24
b2 = (40 - 38.47)/2
</span>b2 = 0.765
lets use the second solution <span>b2 = 0.765, and substitute in the first equation to find a:
</span><span>a*b = 30
</span>a*0.765 = 30
a = 30/0.765
a = 39.216
so the numbers are 39.216 and 0.765
Im pretty sure it gotta be D
