Answer:

1. 17.50

2. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1A: First you have to divide the cost by the three pounds to get the price per pound. Now that you have that answer you multiply it by 7 to get the price of 7 pounds.

2A: You can buy 6 pounds because if you multiply 7.5 x 6 you get 45 which you cannot add one more 7.50 so that is your final answer.

Hope this helps you ^^

What is the solution to the system of equations? 6x – 9y = 16 2x – 3y = 7

kifflom [539]

The first step for solving this problem is to multiply both sides of the bottom equation by -3.
$\left \{ {{6x-9y=16} \atop {-6x + 9y = -21}} \right.$
Add the two equations together.
6x - 9y - 6x + 9y = 16 - 21
Eliminate the opposites.
-9y + 9y = 16 - 21
Remember that the sum of two opposites equals 0,, so the equation becomes the following:
0 = 16 - 21
Calculate the difference on the right side of the equation.
0 = -5
This means that the statement $\left \{ {{6x-9y=16} \atop {2x-3y=7}} \right.$ is false for any value of x and y. That means that the answer to your question is (x,y) ∈ ∅,, or no solution.
Let me know if you have any further questions.

What is the solution set for x2+25=0

Masja [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} + 25 = 0 \\ \therefore {x}^{2} = - 25 \\ \therefore {x} = \sqrt{ - 25} \\ \therefore {x} = \pm\sqrt{ - 1 \times 25} \\ \therefore {x} = \pm \sqrt{ 25} \times \sqrt{ - 1} \\ \therefore {x} = \pm5 \: i \\ \therefore {x} = \{ - 5i, \: \: 5i \} \: \\ is \: the \: solution \: set.$

If f(x)=4x^2+1 and g(x)=x^2-5 find(f+g)(x)

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(f+g)(x)=5x^2+6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)\\\\f(x)=4x^2+1,\ g(x)=x^2-5\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\(f+g)(x)=(4x^2+1)+(x^2-5)\\\\=4x^2+1+x^2-5\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=(4x^2+x^2)+(1+5)\\\\=5x^2+6$
