Answer:
x=-2.5,9
Step-by-step explanation:
Set them equal to each other to say 2x^2-9x=4x+45. Get them all on one side to get 2x^2-13x-45. Factor that out to get (x+2.5)(x-9). Set that equal to 0 to get x=-2.5,9
Point a is at (-2,4) => (x1,y1)
Midpoint is (2.5, 3.5) => (a,b)
Point B is (x2, y2)
To find midpoint we use formula
a= 2.5, b= 3.5, x1= -2 and y1= 4
Plug in all the values and findout x2, y2
multiply 2 on both sides to remove fraction
(5 = -2+x2 , 7 = 4+ y2)
5 = -2+x2, so x2= 7
7 = 4+ y2, so y2= 3
The point B is ( 7, 3)
Answer:
-5

“x” would be multiplication, right?
Answer:
36years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let charity present age be x
Charity daughter present age be y
Charity husband present age be z
If the sum of their ages ten years to come is 117, then;
10+x+10+y+10+z = 117
30+x+y+z = 117
x+y+z = 87 ... 1
If charity is four times as old as her daughter, then;
x = 4y
y = x/4 ... 2
If she is also six years younger than her husband, then;
x = z- 6
z = x+6 .. 3
Substitute 2 and 3 into 1;
x + x/4 + (x+6) = 87
Multiply through by 4
4x + x + 4(x+6) = 4(87)
5x+4x+24 = 348
9x = 348 - 24
9x = 324
x = 324/9
x = 36
hence Charity is 36years old today
