Answer:
(0, -6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following systems of linear equations;
3x - 2y = 12 ...... equation 1
16x - 4y = 24 ........ equation 2
We would solve for the solution using the elimination method;
Multiplying eqn 1 by 2, we have;
2 * (3x - 2y = 12)
6x - 4y = 24
16x - 4y = 24
Subtracting the two equations, we have;
(6x - 16x) + (-4y -[-4y]) = (24 - 24)
-10x - 0 = 0
-10x = 0
x = -0/10 = 0
Next, we would find the value of y;
3x - 2y = 12
3(0) - 2y = 12
0 - 2y = 12
-2y = 12
y = -12/2
y = -6
Check:
3x - 2y = 12
3(0) - 2(-6) = 12
0 - (-12) = 12
12 = 12

Let
x---------> first positive integer
x+1------> second positive integer
x+2-----> third positive integer
we know that
(x+1)*(x+2)=72-------> x² +2x+x+2=72 -------> x² +3x-70=0
using a graph tool-------> <span>I solve the quadratic equation
</span>see the attached figure
the roots are
x1=-10
x2=7
the answer is
first positive integer is x=7
second positive integer is x+1=8
third positive integer is x+2=9

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
g(x) = 1/2x - 11
g(x) = -5
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute: -5 = 1/2x - 11
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: 6 = 1/2x
- Isolate <em>x</em>: 12 = x
- Rewrite: x = 12
I just worked out the problem twice and got -4.5 both times.
