X^2+10x+16=0
First, you find factors of 16.
1 x 16
2 x 8
4 x 4
Next, you find which of the factor pairs adds up to 10 (from the 10x). In this case, 2 x 8 because 2 times 8 is 16 and 2 plus 8 is 10.
Then, the equation will be written out as: (x+2) (x+8). Take those two equations and set them equal to 0, and then solve.
x+2=0
-2 -2
x=-2
x+8=0
-8 -8
x=-8
So, your answers are x=-2 and x=-8. You can check by plugging in those two numbers as x.
First make sure that one of the variable has the same coefficient in each equations.
For example lets use:
y=x+3
2y=3x-1
Since neither the y's or x's are the same, we must multiply the equations to make them the same. I am going to multiply the first equation by 2 so I can eliminate the y's.
So we get:
2y=2x+3
2y=3x-1
Then we subtract the second equation from the first to eliminate the y's. So we end up with 0=-x+4 and now we solve for x
0=-x+4
x=4
Now we plug in our x into either original to get the y-value. I am using the first
y=x+3
y=4+3
So the x=4 and y=7
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.
Please have a look at the attached photo.
My answer:
Question 1: Please see the answer at the photo, remember that when number of quartz is = 1 , Price per quartz = 2. This will be merge against each other.
This step will be repeated for the remaining figure.
Question 2:
As an be seen from the scatter plot, price per quart decrease when the number of quarts increase so the relation between the two variable show a negative association
Hope it will find you well.
Here's how you solve this. So, x+y=2, right? Let's isolate x. x+y-y=2-y. x=2-y. NOW, if x=2-y, in 3x+2y=5, we can REPLACE x with 2-y and use it to solve for y! 3x+2y=5. 3(2-y)+2y=5. (3*2)+(3*-y)+2y=5. 6+(-3y)+2y=5. 6+(-y)=5. 6+(-y)-6=5-6. -y=-1. -y/-1=-1/-1. y=1.
So, if y=1, we can substitute that back into either equation--but let's go with the easier one, x+y=2. x+1=2. x+1-1=2-1. x=1. 1+1=2, so that works; let's check the other equation. 3(1)+2(1)=5. 3+2=5. 5=5. That's correct!
Answer: x=1, y=1
Answer:
Yes because it fits the Pythagorean Theorem
Step-by-step explanation:
see: 5 ^2 = 25
and 3^2 + 4^2 = 9 + 16 = 25
25 = 25
so it is
