Answer:
yes it is rational, as it can be expressed in the form p/q where p=-2 and q=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Father's age is 50, Son's age is 10
Step-by-step explanation:
X+Y=60
X-Y= 40
Let X represent the Father's age while Y represents the Son's age;
therefore, from the two equations, the value of X is
X= 60-Y
X= 40+Y then putting in the value of x
(40+Y) + Y= 60,
40+2Y=60
2Y=60-40 =20
Y= 10,
Now that we know the value of Y, we can get the value of x
If X+Y=60, then
X+10=60,
X=60-10,
X= 50
The advantage of the graphing calculator is that you just have to find two independent equations, introduce them in the calculator and it will find the intersection point ot the two graphs.
The equations that you have to introduce are:
1) y = 2.25x + 24
2) y = 2.75x + 23
The algebraic solution, which will give you the same coordinates of the intersection point of the graphs is
2.25x + 24 = 2.75x + 23
2.75x - 2.25x = 24 - 23
0.5x = 1 => x 1 /0.5 = 2.
Answer: 2
Answer:
Discount selling price= $172.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price= $230
Discount rate= 25%
<u>To calculate the discount selling price, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Discount selling price= selling price*(1 - discount rate)
Discount selling price= 230* (1-0.25)
Discount selling price= $172.5

Answer: x = (
y-2)^2 +
5</h3>
In other words, y-2 goes in the first box and 5 goes in the second box.
=================================================
Work Shown:
y^2 - 4y - x + 9 = 0
y^2 - 4y + 9 = x
x = y^2 - 4y + 9
x = y^2 - 4y + 4 + 5 .... rewrite 9 as 4+5
x = (y^2-4y+4) + 5
x = (y-2)^2 + 5 .... apply the perfect square factoring rule
So we'll have y-2 go in the first box and 5 goes in the second box
note: One version of the perfect square factoring rule says (a-b)^2 = a^2-2ab+b^2.
