-2z - xy = z + 7
You are solving for x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the x.
First, add 2z to both sides
-2z (+2z) - xy = z + 7 (+2z)
Simplify. Combine like terms
-xy = z + 2z + 7
-xy = 3z + 7
Completely isolate the x. Divide -y from both sides
(-xy)/-y = (3z + 7)/-y
x = (3z + 7)/-y
Simplify
z = (3z + 7)/(-y) is your answer
hope this helps
V = x + 4
x = neighbors age
x + x + 4 < = 14...here is the inequality
2x + 4 < = 14.....this is just a simplified form of the inequality
not sure which one u want to write, because they are both basically the same...one is just simplified a little
2x + 4 < = 14
2x < = 14 - 4
2x < = 10
x < = 10/2
x < = 5.....the oldest age of the neighbor is 5
These two problems are equivalent
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
note when x = - 3
(- 3)³ + 2(- 3)² + 4(- 3) + 21 = - 27 + 18 - 12 + 21 = 0
hence x = - 3 is a zero and (x + 3) is a factor and dividing gives
= (x + 3)(x² - x + 7)
For zeros equate to zero
(x + 3)(x² - x + 7) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
x² - x + 7 = 0 ← solve using quadratic formula
x = (1 ± 
) / 2 = (1 ± 3i
) / 2
x = 
± 
zeros are x = - 3, x = ±
