Answer:
α² +β² = 3 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming α and β are solutions to the equation, it can be factored as ...
(x -α)(x -β) = 0
Expanding this, we get ...
x² -(α +β)x +αβ = 0
Dividing the original equation by 3, we find ...
x² +(1/3)x -5/3 ≡ x² -(α+β)x +αβ ⇒ (α+β) = -1/3, αβ = -5/3
We know that the square (α+β)² can be expanded to ...
(α +β)² = α² +β² +2αβ
α² +β² = (α +β)² -2αβ . . . . . . subtract 2αβ
Substituting the values for (α+β) and αβ, we find the desired expression is ...
α² +β² = (-1/3)² -2(-5/3) = 1/9 +10/3 = 31/9
α² +β² = 3 4/9

X=3 and y=-5/2. Here is why, when we do 7x+5x that gives us 12x. -2y+2y=0 and then we have 16 plus 20 which gives us 36. Now we gotta isolate x which right now we have 12x=36. Therefore divide by 12 to get x alone, which 36 divided by 12 is equal to 3. X=3. Plug it back into the equation, 7(3)=21 plus 2y=16. Subtract 21 from both sides 16-21 is equal to -5. Then 2y=-5 divide by 2 on both sides you will have -5/2=y or y=-5/2. Hope this helps!

Answer:
3.93 (approx.)
Step-by-step explanation:
3 ^ x + 6 = 3 ^ 4 can be rewritten as 3 ^ x = 3 ^ 4 - 6, or
3^x = 81 - 6 = 75.
Then 3^x = 75, or
x*ln 3 = ln 75
Solving for x:
x = (ln 75) / (ln 3) = 3.93 (approx.)
