Use subtitution method to solve the problem.
First, change y to the value of x in order to find the exact value of x.
x + y = 4
y = 4 - x
Second, subtitute y with 4 - x from the first equation
y = -x² + 2x + 4
4 - x = -x² + 2x + 4
move all terms to the left side
x² - 2x - x + 4 - 4 = 0
x² - 3x = 0
x(x - 3) = 0
x = 0 or x = 3
Third, now we have 2 values of x. Find the value of y for each of x
For x = 0
y = 4 - x
y = 4 - 0
y = 4
For x = 3
y = 4 - x
y = 4 - 3
y = 1
The solution is (0,4) and (3,1). The answer is option b

Part B: $54
Step-by-step explanation:
Three million five hundred thousand or three and a half million
Take the sqrt of both sides of <span>(x+2)^2=10:
x+2 = plus or minus sqrt(10)
Solve for x: x = -2 plus or minus sqrt(10)
Evaluate x: x = -2 + sqrt(10) AND x = -2 - sqrt(10) (answers)

Step-by-step explanation:
divide 3.5 by 5.0 (3.5 ÷ 5.0 = 0.7), then multiply 0.7 by 15.0 (0.7 × 15.0 = 10.5), and check by dividing (10.5 ÷ 15.0 = 7.0) the answer is 10.5
