Answer:
11x² - y
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out expression
10x² - y + x²
Step 2: Combine like terms
11x² - y
That is simplest form.
To the nearest thousand is 23,000 and the nearest ten thousand is 20,000
What we know:
we know that there are <u>75</u> chicks in the hen house, we also know that in all there are 108 chicks
What we need to find:
we need to find out how many chicks were outside
Answer equation:
108 - 75 = 33
Here is one way to solve for x.
Step 1) 2x^2-7=9
Step 2) 2x^2-7+7=9+7
Step 3) 2x^2=16
Step 4) (2x^2)/2=16/2
Step 5) x^2=8
Step 6) sqrt(x^2)=sqrt(8)
Step 7) |x|=sqrt(8)
Step 8) x=sqrt(8) or x=-sqrt(8)
-------------------------------------
Below are explanations/reasons to each of the steps above.
Step 1) Original equation
Step 2) Add 7 to both sides
Step 3) Combine like terms
Step 4) Divide both sides by 2
Step 5) Simplify
Step 6) Apply the square root to both sides. The notation "sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"
Step 7) Use the rule that sqrt(x^2) = |x| for all real numbers x
Step 8) Use the rule that if |x| = k then x = k or x = -k for some fixed number k.
-------------------------------------
The two solutions are
x = sqrt(8) or x = -sqrt(8)
Answer:
1.23d = 52
Explanation:
If 52 meters is the water level after a 23% increase, then we can say that the initial depth d added to the 23% of d is equal to 52 meters. So:
d + 23%d = 52 meters
Since 23% is equivalent to 0.23, we get:
d + 0.23d = 52
Finally, adding the like terms, we get:
(1 + 0.23)d = 52
1.23d = 52
So, the equation is:
1.23d = 52
