Answer:
you have to divide by 4 not subtracted.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we'll do two basic steps. Step 1 is to subtract 18 from both sides. After that, divide both sides by 2 to get x^2 all by itself. Let's do those two steps now
2x^2+18 = 10
2x^2+18-18 = 10-18 <<--- step 1
2x^2 = -8
(2x^2)/2 = -8/2 <<--- step 2
x^2 = -4
At this point, it should be fairly clear there are no solutions. How can we tell? By remembering that x^2 is never negative as long as x is real.
Using the rule that negative times negative is a positive value, it is impossible to square a real numbered value and get a negative result.
For example
2^2 = 2*2 = 4
8^2 = 8*8 = 64
(-10)^2 = (-10)*(-10) = 100
(-14)^2 = (-14)*(-14) = 196
No matter what value we pick, the result is positive. The only exception is that 0^2 = 0 is neither positive nor negative.
So x^2 = -4 has no real solutions. Taking the square root of both sides leads to
x^2 = -4
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-4)
|x| = sqrt(4)*sqrt(-1)
|x| = 2*i
x = 2i or x = -2i
which are complex non-real values
<u>Answer:</u>
x + y ≥ 26 + 15
5x + 8y ≥ 250 (see below)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, write an equation to represent the total cost to wash cars:
$5x = cost for cars
Then, write another for trucks:
$8y = cost for trucks
If the question is saying that they will wash at least 26 cars and 15 trucks, that means they could wash more. This means that we'll need an inequality:
This inequality represents that the total number of cars and trucks they wash will be at least—which means that it is equal to or greater than—than the amount given:
x + y ≥ 26 + 15
Any equation or inequality with two unknowns is not solvable, meaning we need a system of equations:
If they make at least $250, that means that we need to combine the costs of the cars and trucks to make an inequality:
5x + 8y ≥ 250
Now you have your system of equations:
x + y ≥ 26 + 15
5x + 8y ≥ 250
