Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 4 from both sides:

-3y+4-4=-17-4

Simplify:

-3y=-21

Divide both sides by -3

-3y/-3 = -21/-3

Simplify:

y=7

Solve the equation for x∈Z <br><br>-x² +8x -14 ≥ 0

kenny6666 [7]

$ax^2+bx+c=0\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\if\ \Delta < 0\ then\ no\ solutions\\if\ \Delta=0\ then\ one\ solution:x=\frac{-b}{2a}\\if\ \Delta > 0\ then\ two\ solutions:x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\================================\\\\-x^2+8x-14\geq0\ \ \ \ |multiply\ both\ sides\ by\ (-1)\ \{change\ \geq\ on\ \leq\}\\\\x^2-8x+14\leq0\\\\a=1;\ b=-8;\ c=14\\\\\Delta=(-8)^2-4\cdot1\cdot14=64-56=8 > 0\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt8=\sqrt{4\cdot2}=\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt2=2\sqrt2$

$x_1=\frac{-(-8)-2\sqrt2}{2\cdot1}=\frac{8-2\sqrt2}{2}=\frac{8}{2}-\frac{2\sqrt2}{2}=\boxed{4-\sqrt2}\\\\x_2=\frac{-(-8)+2\sqrt2}{2\cdot1}=\frac{8+2\sqrt2}{2}=\frac{8}{2}+\frac{2\sqrt2}{2}=\boxed{4+\sqrt2}\\\\============================$

$ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\if\ a > 0\ then\ the\ parabola\ o pen\ up\\if\ a < 0\ then\ the\ parabola\ o pen\ down\\========================\\\\a=1 > 0-therefore\ o pen\ up\ (look\ at\ the\ picture)\\\\===============================\\\\Answer:x\in\left$

$Solutions\ in\ \mathbb{Z}:\\\\\sqrt2\approx1.4\\\\threfore:4-\sqrt2\approx4-1.4=2.6\ and\ 4+\sqrt2\approx4+1.4=5.4\\\\look\ at\ the\ second\ picture:x=3\ or\ x=4\ or\ x=5\ (x\in\{3;\ 4;\ 5\})$

The area of a rectangle garden is 38 1/4 Square meters the width of the garden is 4 1/2 meters. Find the length of the garden

maxonik [38]

Area of rectangle it's the width multiply by the lenth.

A=W*L

A=38 1/4 m²
W=4 1/2 m²

So:       38 1/4 = 4 1/2 * L
Dividing both sides by 4 1/2: : 4 1/2         :4 1/2
      $38\frac14\ :\ 4\frac12\ =\ L\\\\L=\frac{153}4\ :\ \frac{9}2\\\\L=\frac{153}4\ \cdot\ \frac2{9}\\\\L=\frac{17}{2}\cdot\ \frac1{1}\\\\L=8\frac12$

Answer: T<span>he length of the garden is 8 1/2 meters</span>
