Substitute y = -x into the first equation:

-8x - 7(-x) = -5

-8x + 7x = -5

-x = -5

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into y = -x

y = -(5)

y = -5

Answer: x = 5, y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x -7y + 5 = 0

y = -x

substituting this value, we get:

-8x -7(-x) +5= 0

-8x +7x + 5 =0

-x +5=0

5 = x

substituting this value in the equation, we get:

-8(5) -7y + 5 = 0

-40 -7y +5=0

-35 -7y =0

7y = -35

y = -35/7

y = -5

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf x=\cfrac{1\pm \sqrt{-7} }{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf x^2-x+2=0$

Use quadratic formula:

$\boxed{\sf \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}}$

$\sf a=1, b=-1, c=2$

___________________________

$\sf x_1,_2=\cfrac{-\left(-1\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-1\right)^2-4\times \:1\times \:2}}{2\times \:1}$

$\sf \sqrt{\left(-1\right)^2-4\times \:1\times \:2}$

$\sf =\sqrt{-7}$

_________________

$\sf x_1,_2\cfrac{-\left(-1\right)\pm \sqrt{-7}}{2\times \:1}$

$\sf -(-1)=1$

$2\times 1=2$

$\sf x_1,_2=\cfrac{1\pm \sqrt{-7} }{2}$

Answer:

The mean would be 14.4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the mean, or average, of the numbers, you would add all the numbers together.

17 + 15 +14 + 14 + 12 which equals 72

Then, you take the total which is 72, and divide it by how many numbers you added together which is 5.

72/5 = 14.4
