Solve the following System Of Equations Using Substitution or Elimination Methods. Show Work.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ostrovityanka [42]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

There are two pairs of solutions: (2,7) and (-1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use substitution.

y = x^2 + 3

y = x +5

Since the second equation is equal to y, replace y in the first equation with the second equation.

y = x^2 + 3

x + 5 = x^2 + 3

Rearrange so that one side is equal to 0.

5 - 3 = x^2 - x

2 = x^2 - x

0 = x^2 - x - 2

You may use quadratic formula or any form of factoring to find the zeros (x values that make the equation equal to 0).

a = 1, b = -1, c = -2

Zeros = \frac{-b + \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac }  }{2a} and \frac{-b - \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac }  }{2a}

Zeros = 2 and -1

Now that you have your x values, plug them into the equations to find their corresponding y values.

y = x^2 + 3

y = (2)^2 + 3

y = 7

Pair #1: (2,7)

y = x^2 + 3

y = (-1)^2 + 3

y = 4

Pair #2: (-1,4)

Therefore, there are two pairs of solutions: (2,7) and (-1,4).

What is the solution to the system of equations y = -x - 5 and y = 2x + 4
Delvig [45]

Answer:

(-3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -x - 5

y = 2x + 4

plug in one of the y equations

(2x+4)= -x - 5

2x+4=-x-5

3x=-9

x= -3

plug in x to one of the y equations

y= -(-3) -5

y=3-5

y= -2

x= -3, y= -2

Roberta has $10,540 to invest. She plans to invest her money in certificates of deposit (CDs) that have 2.1% interest, a stock p
ira [324]

Answer:

The amount invested in CDs is  $1,340

The amount invested in the stock portafolio is $6,900

The amount invested in the saving accounts is $2,300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---->the amount invested in CDs at 2.1%

y ---> the amount invested in the stock portfolio at 2.5%

z ---> the amount invested in the savings account at 1.5%

x+y+z=10,540 ----> equation A

z=\frac{1}{3}y ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

x+y+\frac{1}{3}y=10,540

x+\frac{4}{3}y=10,540

x=10,540-\frac{4}{3}y ----> equation C

we know that

The total interest earned by the three amount must be equal to $231.69

so

0.021x+0.025y+0.015z=231.69 ----> equation D

substitute equation B and equation C in equation D

0.021(10,540-\frac{4}{3}y)+0.025y+0.015(\frac{1}{3}y)=231.69

solve for y

221.34-0.0315y+0.025y+0.005y=231.69

0.0015y=231.69-221.34

0.0015y=10.35

y=\$6,900

<em>Find the value of x</em>

x=10,540-\frac{4}{3}(6,900)

x=\$1,340

<em>Find the value of z</em>

z=\frac{1}{3}(6,900)

z=\$2,300

Can 12 be part of more than one fact family? Explain.
Nina [5.8K]
A fact family is a group of math facts using the same numbers. In the case of addition/subtraction, you use three numbers and get four facts. For example, you canform a fact family using the threenumbers 10, 2, and 12: 10 + 2 = 12, 2 + 10 = 12, 12 − 10 = 2, and 12 − 2 = 10.
