Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first subsitute the y with 13. The you would subtract 3 from 3 and 13. Then you would have  10=5x. Then you would divide 5 by 5 and 10. You will get x = 2

20. Carmen can buy bottles of paint for $2.00 each and boxes of colored pencils for $3.50 each. She can spend no more than
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

(a) The equality that express many bottles of paint, x, and boxes of colored pencils, y, Carmen can buy is  2 x + 3.5 y = 42

b)Three different solutions:

x  = 14, y = 4 is First Solution.

x  = 7, y = 8 is Second Solution.

x  = 21, y = 0 is Third Solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the cost of 1 bottle of paint = $2.00 each

The cost of 1 box of colored pencils  = $3.5 each

Let us assume the number of bottle of paints purchased = x

So, the cost of x bottle of paints   = x ( Cost of 1 bottle of paint)

= x ($2.00)  = 2 x

Also, assume the number of box of colored pencils purchased = y

So, the cost of y box of colored pencils = y ( Cost of 1 box)

= y ($3.50)  = 3.5 y

Also, the total amount to be spent on art supplies  = $42

So, the total amount spent on x paint bottles + y box of colored pencil

= $42

or,  2 x + 3.5 y = 42

a ) So, the equality that express many bottles of paint, x, and boxes of colored pencils, y, Carmen can buy is  2 x + 3.5 y = 42

b)Three different solutions:

When y = 4 ,  equation is:   2 x + 3.5(4)  = 42

or,  2 x = 42 - 14  = 28, or x = 28/2  =  14

So, x  = 14, y = 4 is First Solution.

When y = 8 ,  equation is:   2 x + 3.5(8)  = 42

or,  2 x = 42 - 28  = 14, or x = 14/2  =  7

So, x  = 7, y = 8 is Second Solution.

When y = 0 ,  equation is:   2 x + 3.5(0)  = 42

or,  2 x = 42 , or x = 42/2  = 21

So, x  = 21, y = 0 is Third Solution.

A solid has 16 faces and 14 vertices. How many edges does the solid have
PSYCHO15rus [73]
We know the number of faces and vertices of the solid and we have to calculate the number of edges.We have : F = 16 and V = 14.The formula is:F - E + V = 216 - E + 14 = 216 + 14 - 2 = EE = 30 - 2E = 28Answer: The solid has 28 edges.

Consider the following division of polynomials.
Bond [772]

x^4=x^2\cdot x^2. Multiplying the denominator by x^2 gives

x^2(x^2+2x+8)=x^4+2x^3+8x^2

Subtracting this from the numerator gives a remainder of

(x^4+x^3+7x^2-6x+8)-(x^4+2x^3+8x^2)=-x^3-x^2-6x+8

-x^3=-x\cdot x^2. Multiplying the denominator by -x gives

-x(x^2+2x+8)=-x^3-2x^2-8x

and subtracting this from the previous remainder gives a new remainder of

(-x^3-x^2-6x+8)-(-x^3-2x^2-8x)=x^2+2x+8

This last remainder is exactly the same as the denominator, so x^2+2x+8 divides through it exactly and leaves us with 1.

What we showed here is that

\dfrac{x^4+x^3+7x^2-6x+8}{x^2+2x+8}=x^2-\dfrac{x^3+x^2+6x-8}{x^2+2x+8}

=x^2-x+\dfrac{x^2+2x+8}{x^2+2x+8}

=x^2-x+1

and this last expression is the quotient.

To verify this solution, we can simply multiply this by the original denominator:

(x^2+2x+8)(x^2-x+1)=x^2(x^2-x+1)+2x(x^2-x+1)+8(x^2-x+1)

=(x^4-x^3+x^2)+(2x^3-2x^2+2x)+(8x^2-8x+8)

=x^4+x^3+7x^2-6x+8

which matches the original numerator.
