A. When you equalize two equations, geometrically you are trying to find the intersection point of them, i.e. find the common point of them. So the x coordinate of the intersection point is basically the solution.
B. You can simply plug in numbers from -3 to 3 and list the values by yourself.
C. Graphically, draw each equation, and find the x coordinate of the intersection point.
FYI, the solution is x = 1/3
Answer:
65.5
Step-by-step explanation:
(74 + 57)divided by 2 = 65.5
Let the two numbers be x and y.
Let m = the fraction (or percentage) for increasing the numbers.
Increase x by 5, multiply (x+5) by (1+m), and set it qual to 36.
(x + 5)*(1 + m) = 36
Increase y by 5, multiply (y+5) by (1+m), and set it equal to 36.
(y+5)*(1+m) = 36
Therefore
(x+5)*(1+m) = (y+5)*(1+m)
x + 5 = y + 5
x = y
x - y = 0
Answer: 0.
The difference between the two numbers is zero.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
|X|= the absolute value of a number regardless of whether the number is negative or positive
