8 0

Since there are no numbers, i will assume that the length of recess is 1 minute, or x. if social studies is 4 more than 2 times the length of recess, we can use the equation x*2+4 to solve the problem. the end result will be 6 minutes. Social studies is 6 minutes longer than recess

If you were to use the substitution method to solve the following system, choose the new equation after the expression equivalen

jolli1 [7]

First, you need to isolate the x in the first equation.
-x + 5y = 1
Subtract 5y from both sides, leaving you with the following equation:
-x = 1-5y
Because you are trying to solve for positive x and not negative x, you need to make x positive. Therefore you divide both sides by -1. In Algebra, when 1 is the coefficient of the variable, it is not shown, but it is still there. The new equation will be the following: x = 5y-1
Now you just need to substitute the x within the second equation for the x equation we just solved for.

Therefore, the right answer will be 2(5y-1)+4y= -4. Now, all you have to do is choose the answer that states exactly that, which is the first choice.

Solve using Quadratic Formula <br>x^2 + 3x - 3 = 0

katrin [286]

Answer:

a= 1 , b= 3 , c= –3

$x = \frac{ - b \frac{ + }{} \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} \\ x = \frac{ - 3 \frac{ + }{} {} \sqrt{ {3}^{2} - 4(1)( - 3)} }{2(1)} \\ = \frac{ - 3 \frac{ + }{} \sqrt{9 + 12} }{2} = \frac{ - 3 \frac{ + }{} \sqrt{21} }{2} \\ \\ x = \frac{ - 3 \frac{ + }{} \sqrt{21} }{2} \\ \\ x = 0.79 \\ x = - 3.79$

Let the number be n.

Then:

n^2 + (1/n)^2 = 82/9; find n. Find the LCD; it is 9n^2.

Mult all 3 terms by 9n^2:
82*9n^2
9n^4 + 9 = (82/9)(9n^2) => 9n^4 + 9 = ------------
   9
Then 9n^4 - 82n^2 + 9 = 0

I used my graphing calculator to find that n = 3.

Let's check: is 3^2 + (1/3)^2 = 82/9?
Is 9 + 1/9 = 82/9?
Is 81 + 1 = 82? YES. So, n=3 is a solution.
