x = -3 or x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 5x + 6 = 0
(x + 3)(x + 2)
x = -3 \/ x = -2
2 equations: the first one is the sum of 2 unknown numbers x and y: x + y = 72. Now the difference is 25, so x - y = 25. Solve the first equation for y: y = 72 - x. Sub that into the second equation to solve for x: x - (72 - x) = 25. x - 72 + x = 25 and 2x - 72 = 25. Therefore, 2x = 97 and x = 48.5 That's the larger of the 2 numbers; since we subtracted y from x we defined x as the larger of the 2. Just for fun, plug x in to find that y = 23.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to use the triangle inequality theorem:
12cm, 4cm, xcm
x > 4cm - 12cm
x > -8cm
x < 12cm - 4cm
x < 8cm
-8cm < x < 8cm
