Answer:

x = 8

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

11x - 20y = 28

3x + 4y = 36

11x - 20y = 28

11x = 20y + 28

x = $\frac{20}{11}$ y + $\frac{28}{11}$

3x + 4y = 36

3 ( $\frac{20}{11}$ y + $\frac{28}{11}$ ) + 4y = 36

$\frac{104}{11}$ y = $\frac{312}{11}$

y = 3

x = $\frac{20}{11}$ y + $\frac{28}{11}$

x = $\frac{20}{11}$ ( 3 ) + $\frac{28}{11}$

x = 8

The larger of the two positive numbers is 8 more than the smaller. The sum of their squares is 104. Find the two numbers.

poizon [28]

Hey there!

Let's set up a system of equations to find our answer. We will use x and y, with y being the larger 1.

y=x+8

x²+y²=104

We plug our value for y into the second equation and we get that y is equal to two. We can then plug this into the first equation and we get 10.

Our two numbers are two and ten.

I hope this helps!

Let's plug our y value into the second equation.

x²+x²+64=104

-40-8b=-6(1+7b) what’s the answer

Andre45 [30]

$\text{Hey there!}$

$\mathsf{-40-8b=-6(1+7b)}\\\mathsf{SIMPLIFY\ both\ sides\ of\ your\ equation}\\\mathsf{-40-8b=-6(1+7b)}$

$\mathsf{Distribute\ the\ RIGHT\ side\ of\ the\ equation }\\\mathsf{Distribute [the\ formula\ is: a(b+c)=a(b)+a(c)=ab+ac]}\\\mathsf{-6(1)+(-6)}(7b)\\\mathsf{-6(1)=-6}\\\mathsf{-6(7b)=-42b}\\\mathsf{\rightarrow\ =-6+(-42b)}$

$\mathsf{-40-8b=-6+(-42b)}\\\mathsf{\rightarrow -8b-40=-42b-6}$

$\mathsf{ADD\ by\ 42b\ on\ your\ sides}\\\mathsf{-8b-40+42b=-42b-6+42b}\\\mathsf{SOLVE\ above\ correct\ to\ get\ us\ to\ the\ next\ step!}\\\mathsf{\rightarrow 34b-40=-6}$

$\mathsf{ADD\ by\ 40\ on\ your\ sides}\\\mathsf{34b-40+40=-6+40}\\\mathsf{Cancel\ out\ -40+40\ because\ that\ gives\ the\ result\ of\ 0}\\\mathsf{-6+40=34}\\\mathsf{\rightarrow New\ equation: 34b = 34}$

$\mathsf{DIVIDE\ both\ of\ your\ sides\ by\ 34}\\\mathsf{\dfrac{34b}{34}=\dfrac{34}{34}}\\\\\mathsf{Cancel\ out: \dfrac{34b}{34}\ because\ that\ gives\ you\ the\ result\ of\ 1b}\\\\\mathsf{Keep:\dfrac{34}{34}\ because\ it\ solves\ for\ b}\\\\\mathsf{\dfrac{34}{34}=34\div34=1}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\mathsf{Thus\ your\ answer\ is:\boxed{\boxed{\mathsf{b=1}}}}}}}}\checkmark$

Given f(x) = the quantity of 2x minus 2 divided by 4, solve for f−1(3).

spin [16.1K]

Given: f(x)=(2x-2)/4
find f^-1(3)?
we need to find the inverse of f(x), so
x=(2y-2)/4
2y-2=4x
y-1=2x
y=2x+1
so, then f^-1(x)=2x+1
f^-1(3)=2(3)+1
=6+1
=7
so, the answer is 7
