Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
replace x with -7
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Choice E and F
Discussion:
From the quadratic formula with a = 3, b = -1, and c = 6
x = ( -b +\- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac) ) / (2a) => substitute in a,b,c from above
x = ( -(-1) +\- sqrt((-1)^2 - 4(3)(6)) / (2*3) => discriminant = 1 - 72 = -71)
x = ( 1 +\- sqrt(-71))/ 6
which are choices E and F
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
A (-5,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+y=-23
7x-3y=-41
3×(5x+y)=3×(-23)
15x+3y=-69
<u>+</u><u>7x-3y</u><u>=</u><u>-41</u>
<u>22x</u>=<u>-110</u>
22. 22
x=-5
5x+y=-23
5(-5)+y=-23
-25+y=-23
<u>+25</u><u>.</u> <u>+25</u>
y=2
When using elimination you add both equations together so that one variable cancels out the other. In this situation, y can be the variable. You must get the y-variables to cancel out leaving just the x- variables to solve for.
A/C is the answer for B because you multiply by b and then divide by c
