Solve by factoring 2x^2=19x+33

1 answer:

5 0

2x^2 - 19x - 33 = 0 

The factors of 2 are 1 x 2. 
The factors of 33 are 1 x 33 and 3 x 11. 

Using Guess and Test and FOIL, find a combination that gives you a middle term of -19x: 

(2x + 3)(x - 11) = 0. 

Using the principal of zero product, solve each equation for x: 

2x + 3 =0 and x - 11 =0. 

The two solutions are x = -3/2 and x = 11.

Answer:

The answer is about 32,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply 3.2 by 10, for 10 years, you get 32 percent. From there, if you multiply 25,000 by 0.32, you get 8000. If you add 25,000 to 8000, you get about 32,000.

Answer

Question 1

4 pants

11 shirts

Question 2

Shady has 30 video games.

Preston has 19 video games.

Question 3

1 muffin costs $1.5

1 quart of milk costs $3

Explanation

Question 1

Let the number of shirts be s

Let the number of pants be p

She bought a total of 15 shirts and shirts

s + p = 15

She bought 7 more shirts than pants.

s = 7 + p

So, we can solve the simultaneous equation.

s + p = 15

s = 7 + p

Substitute for s in equation 1

s + p = 15

7 + p + p = 15

7 + 2p = 15

2p = 15 - 7

2p = 8

Divide both sides by 2

(2p/2) = (8/2)

p = 4 pants

s = 7 + p = 7 + 4 = 11 shirts

Question 2

Let the number of games Shady has be s

Let the number of games Preston has be p

Together, they have a total of 49 video games

s + p = 49

Shady has 11 more games than Preston.

s = 11 + p

So, we can solve the simultaneous equation.

s + p = 49

s = 11 + p

Substitute for s in equation 1

s + p = 49

11 + p + p = 49

11 + 2p = 49

2p = 49 - 11

2p = 38

Divide both sides by 2

(2p/2) = (38/2)

p = 19 video games

s = 11 + p = 11 + 19 = 30 video games

Question 3

Let the cost of a muffin be m

Let the cost of a quart of milk be q

The cost of 8 muffins and 2 quarts of milk is $18.

8m + 2q = 18

The cost of 3 muffins and 1 quart of milk is $7.50

3m + q = 7.5

So, we can solve the simultaneous equation

8m + 2q = 18

3m + q = 7.5

Solving this,

m = 1.5 dollars

q = 3 dollars

Hope this Helps!!!

Anni [7]

Answer: the cost of each bush is $15

the cost of each flower is $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of each bush.

Let y represent the cost of each flower.

Portia bought 12 bushes and 30 flowers for $240 to plant in her yard. This is expressed as

12x + 30y = 240- - - - - - - - - - -1

Later, she realized she did not have enough plants and bought 7 more bushes and 10 more flowers for $125. This is expressed as

7x + 10y = 125- - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 12, it becomes

84x + 210y = 1680

84x + 120y = 1500

Subtracting, it becomes

90y = 180

y = 180/90

y = 2

Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes

12x + 30 × 2 = 240

12x + 60 = 240

12x = 240 - 60 = 180

x = 180/12

x = 15
