Let x = first number and y = second number.
The first statement is expressed as
x*y = 713
The second statement is expressed as
x = y + 9
To find x, use the second equation in terms of y, that is y = x - 9. Then substituting it to the first equation yields
x*(x - 9) = 713
Answer:
2x -y ≥ 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The intercepts of the boundary line are given, so it is convenient to start with the equation of that line in intercept form:
... x/(x-intercept) + y/(y-intercept) = 1
... x/2 + y/(-4) = 1
Multiplying by 4 gives the equation of the line.
... 2x -y = 4
This line divides the plane into two half-planes. The half-plane that is shaded is the one for larger values of x and/or smaller values of y than the ones on the line. So, for some given y, if we increase x we will get a number from our equation above that is greater than 4. Hence, the inequality we want is ...
... 2x -y ≥ 4
We use the ≥ symbol because the line is solid, so part of the solution space.
i think we have to find the answer for terms of a
p=a+4b+2c
ISOLATE A
p-4b-2c=a
answer:
p-4b-2c=a
64^x=16^x-1====> Make the bases the same
4^3(x)=4^2(x-1)=> Solve for x by bringing down the exponent without the base.
3(x)=2(x-1)=====> Distribute
3x=2x-2======> Now solve for x
3x = 2x-2
-2x -2x
x=-2
Therefore x is negative two
