Answer:

x=2, y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(3x+y=8)

3(2x+4y=12)

-6x+-2y=-16

6x+12y=36

0+10y=20

       y=2

3x+2=8

3x=6

x=2

  • 3x+y=8--(1)

2x+4y=12

  • x+2y=6--(2)

  • (1)×1 and (2)×3

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 3x+y=8

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 3x+6y=18

Subtract both

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow -5y=-10

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=\dfrac{-10}{-5}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=2

Put the value in eq(2)

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x+2(2)=6

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x+4=6

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=6-4=2

(x+7)^2+9=0<br><br> Find x with quadratics
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

x = -7 ±3i

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+7)^2+9=0

Subtract 9 from each side

(x+7)^2+9-9=0-9

(x+7)^2=-9

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x+7)^2) = ±sqrt(-9)

We know sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a) sqrt(b)

x+7 = ±sqrt(-1) sqrt(9)

We know that sqrt(-1) is the imaginary number i

x+7 = ±i *3

x+7 =±3i

Subtract 7 from each side

x+7-7 = -7 ±3i

x = -7 ±3i

Make B the subject of the relation : 1/a is equal to 1/b + c​
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

By making ‘a’ the subject, I believe you mean isolate the variable ‘a’.

1/a - 1/b = 1/c : add 1/b to both sides

1/a = 1/b + 1/c : combine the unlike fractions by finding a common denominator, bc is the common denominator

1/a = (1/b)(c/c) + (1/c)(b/b) : simplify

1/a = (c/bc) + (b/bc) : add numerators only, because the denominators match

1/a = (c + b)/bc : multiply both sides by a

1 = (a)[(c + b)/bc] : multiply both sides by the reciprocal of [(c + b)/bc] which is [bc/(b + c)]

1[bc/(b + c)] = a

a = bc/(b + c)

This will not work if c = -b, because then you would be dividing by zero.

Example: 1/2 - 1/3 = 1/6 a = 2, b = 3 c= 6

a = bc/(b + c) => 2 = (3 x 6)/(3 + 6) => 2 = 18/9 => 2 = 2.
