16 because 48/3 = 16 and we know that he started with 50 chocolates then distributed 3 times the number of friends present. This is written as 50 - 3x. We also know that there were 2 chocolates left so -3x = 2 - 50 which when simplified is x = 48/3 which equals 16.

Answer:

All of these terms are dollar amounts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x + y = 10 (where these numerals represent counts)

(1/2)x + (1/4)y = 4 (where (1/2), (1/4) and 4 are dollar amounts)

Let's eliminate y.  To accomplish this, mult. the 2nd eq'n by-4, obtaining

-2x - y = -16, and then combining this with the 1st equation, as follows:

-2x - y = -16

  x + y = 10

-------------------

 -x  = -6, or x = 6.  This represents the number of pens purchased by Terrance.  

Subbing 6 for x in the first equation, we get y = 4.  This represents the number of pencils he bought.

($0.50)x + ($0.25)y = $4.00 (dollar amounts)

1.) Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. If necessary, round to the nearest hundredth .x squared minus 21 x equals n
Andrew [12]
Part 1
We are given x^2-21x=-4x. This can be rewritten as x^2-18x=0.
Therefore, a=1, b=-18, c=0.
Using the quadratic formula
     x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-\left(-18\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-18\right)^2-4\left(1\right)\left(0\right)}}{2\left(1\right)}
     x=\frac{18\pm 18}{2}

The values of x are
     x_1=\frac{18-18}{2}=0
     x_2=\frac{18+18}{2}=18

Part 2
Since the values of y change drastically for every equal interval of x, the function cannot be linear. Therefore, the kind of function that best suits the given pairs is a quadratic function. 

Part 3.
The first equation is y=x^2+2.
The second equation is y=3x+20.

We have 
     x^2+2=3x+20
     x^2-3x-18=0
Factoring, we have 
     \left(x-6\right)\left(x+3\right)=0
Equating both factors to zero.
     x_1-6=0\rightarrow x_1=6
     x_2+3=0\rightarrow x_2=-3

When the value of x is 6, the value of y is 
     y=3\left(6\right)+20=38

When the value of x is -3, the value of y is 
     y=3\left(-3\right)+20=11

Therefore, the solutions are (6,38) or (-3,11)
