Since the number of cats has to be less than 28, a statement could be "the shelter can house no more than 28 cats.
X^2 + 5x = -2
x^2 + 5x + 2 = 0
x = -b (+-) sqrt (b^2 - 4ac) / 2a
a = 1, b = 5, and c = 2
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (5^2 - 4(1)(2)) / 2(1)
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (25 - 8) / 2
x = -5 (+-) sqrt (17) / 2
answer is : negative 5 plus or minus the square root of 17 divided by 2
Answer: multiply 10 to both terms and subrtact products
Step-by-step explanation:
10(5 - 2x)
multipy 10 to both terms
50 20x
subtract products
50 - 20x
10. (5,8)(-3,7)
slope = (7 - 8) / (-3 - 5) = -1 / -8 = 1/8
11. (5,-2)(3,-2)...since both y values are the same, this line is a horizontal line with a 0 slope.
12. (-4,7)(8,-1)
slope = (-1 - 7) / (8 - (-4) = -8 / (8 + 4) = -8/12 = - 2/3
13. (6,-3)(6,4)....since both x values are the same, this line is a vertical line with a slope that is undefined
14. -2/5
(-1, 0)
Start by adding -2x to both sides of the second equation. Then substitute that equation into the first.
3x+3(2x+2)=-3
Solve the equation for x.
When you've found the value of x, substitute that value into the equation with the isolated y.
y=2(-1)+2
