Answer:
y=
Step-by-step explanation:
I used an online graphing calculator and process of elimination...
L.H.S is already equal, so just subtract 1st equation from second,
2y = 12
y = 6
Now, substitute it in 1st equation,
2(6) = 4x + 8
4x = 12 - 8
x = 4/4
x = 1
In short, Your Answer would be Option C) (1, 6)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Let x represent the number from the sentence.
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x) + 2(1/x) = 20/3
2x + 2/x = 20/3
multiply both sides of the equation by 3x
6x + 6 = 20x
6x - 20x + 6 = 0
6x - 18x - 2x + 6 = 0
6x(x-3 -2(x-3) = 0
(6x-2 = 0 or x-3 = 0
6x = 2 or x = 3
x = 2/6
x = 1/3
Since x represented the number
Therefore x = 1/3 or 3
Answer:
The roots are;
x = (2 + i)/5 or (2-i)/5
where the term i is the complex number representing the square root of -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to use the completing the square method to solve the quadratic equation;
f(x) = -5x^2 + 4x -1
Set the function to zero
0 = -5x^2 + 4x - 1
So;
-5x^2 + 4x = 1
divide through by the coefficient of x which is -5
x^2 - 4/5x = -1/5
We now take half of the coefficient of x and square it
= -2/5^2 = 4/25
add it to both sides
x^2 - 4x/5 + 4/25= -1/5 + 4/25
(x- 2/5)^2 = -1/5 + 4/25
(x - 2/5)^2 = -1/25
Take the square root of both sides
x - 2/5 = √( -1/25
x - 2/5 = +i/5 or -i/5
x = 2/5 + i/5 or 2/5 - i/5
