3x+4=10
Subtract 4 from both sides
3x=6
Divide both sides by 3
X=2
Sides = 10,10,5
Problem 5. 4x+1=29
Subtract 1 from both sides
4x=28
X=7
X +x²= 132
x +x²-132= 132-132
x²+x -132 = 0
(x-11) (x+12) = 0
x-11 = 0 X+12=0
x-11+11 = 0+11 X+12-12=0-12
x =11 x= -12
Check
x +x²= 132 x +x²= 132
-12 +-12²= 132 11 +11²= 132
-12 + 144 = 132 11+ 121=132
132= 132 132=132
Since the problem says positive the answer is (11,121)
This is because astronauts can't sprinkle salt and pepper on their food in space. The salt and pepper would simply float away. There is a danger they could clog air vents, contaminate equipment or get stuck in an astronaut's eyes, mouth or nose. Astronauts eat three meals a day: breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Pretty sure it's D. When you have a fractional exponent, the root number is always on the bottom, while the exponent on the top. Since x and y are not grouped together in a parentheses, we can assume that only "y" is being raised to the 2/9 power. That means "x "will stay out in front and y will be in the 9th root being raised to the 2nd power.
