Y=x^2+3x+4
y-x=7
x^2+3x+4-x=7
x^2+2x+4=7
(factor) x^2+2x-3=0
(x+3)(x-1)=0
X= -3 and X=1
(Plug x in for y)
Y= 1^2+3(1)+4
Y=8
(Check your answer on the second equation)
8-1=7
7=7 (Which is the solution)
Answer:
Martha is 29
Step-by-step explanation:
48=AX+MX+10
-10=-10
38=AX+MX
÷2=÷2
19=X
M(19)+10=29
48=19+29

Complete Question
Jim had 103 red and blue marbles. After giving 2/5 of his blue marbles and 15 of his red marbles to Samantha, Jim had 3/7 as many red marbles as blue marbles. How many blue marbles did he have originally?
Answer:
70 Blue marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let red marbles = R
Blue marbles = B
Step 1
Jim had 103 red and blue marbles.
R + B = 103.......Equation 1
R = 103 - B
Step 2
After giving 2/5 of his blue marbles and 15 of his red marbles to Samantha, Jim had 3/7 as many red marbles as blue marbles
2/5 of B to Samantha
Jim has = B - 2/5B = 3/5B left
He also gave 15 red marbles to Samantha
= R - 15
The ratio of what Jim has left
= Red: Blue
= 3:7
= 3/7
Hence,
R - 15/(3/5)B = 3/7
Cross Multiply
7(R - 15) = 3(3/5B)
7R - 105 = 3(3B/5)
7R - 105 = 9B/5
Cross Multiply
5(7R - 105) = 9B
35R - 525 = 9B............ Equation 2
From Equation 1, we substitute 103 - B for R in Equation 2
35(103 - B) - 525 = 9B
3605 - 35B - 525 = 9B
Collect like terms
3605 - 525 = 9B + 35B
3080 = 44B
B = 3080/44
B = 70
Therefore, Jim originally had 70 Blue marbles.
