X + (x + 2)
x + 2 + 3x = 234 combine like terms
4x + 2 = 234 subtract two to isolate x
4x = 232 divide by four
x = 58
The two numbers are 58 and 60.
Y = 1/2x + b
Plug in the point :)
-9 = 1/2(-4) + b
-9 = -2 + b
b = -7
Y = 1/2 -7
Divide total cups he drank by the # of cups in each bottle.
7 ÷ 3= 2.3333
Since each bottle only holds 3 cups, he drank 3 bottles of water. He didn't drink all the water in the third bottle, but he started drinking the third bottle.
ANSWER: 3 bottles
Hope this helps! :)
The word that describes it is congruent
We can do this easily using 0s.
(x - i) (x + i) (x + 4) (x - 1) = 0
If you plug in any of the numbers, you'll get 0, making the equation true.
