Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's organise our information :
- the function is (1/2)x²+2x+3
we want to khow the value of x that gives us : (1/2)x²+2x+3=x+7
Now the trick is to write this expression as a quadratic equation with zero at one side :
- (1/2)x²+2x+3-x-7=0
- (1/2)x²+x-4=0
Now let's solve this equation :
Δ=1²-4*(1/2)*(-4)
= 9
So we have two solutions :
So the solutions are -4 and 2
2x+y = -5. Solve this for y. We get y = -2x - 5. Find y^2: 4x^2 + 20x + 25. Substitute 4x^2 + 20x + 25 for y^2 in the first equation:
x^2 + 4x^2 + 20x + 25 = 25
Then 5x^2 + 20x = 0, so that x = 0. Subst. 0 for x in the 2nd eqn and find the value of y. Write your solutions as shown above: ( , ) and ( , ).
2798 divided by 20 equals 139.9
If x is the smaller one, and is odd, the next consecutive odd integer is x+2.






Check:
11(13) = 143
23 + 5(11 + 13) = 23 + 120 = 143, check
-3(-1) = 3
23 + 5(-3 + -1) = 3, check
Answer: 11,13 or -3,-1
Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
