To set up your system of equations is to have 2 equations. They both would have 1 similar variable. For example, Jenny is 5 more her brother's age. She is also 2 more than twice her brother's age. You would set this up as Y, which is Jenny, and X, her brother. Y = 5 + x and Y = 2x + 2. Make sure you put Y in the same spot in both equations. Then take the other half of the equations and simplify them. 5 + x = 2x + 2. Subtract x from both sides to get 5 = x + 2. Subtract 2 from both sides to get 3 = x. Now replace the X from both equations to get Y = 5+3, and Y = 2(3) + 2. You will see both add up to 8, which is how old Jenny is in this example. Hope this helped!
The interpretation of the solution is that there are 15 true/false questions and 5 multiple choice questions.
Answer:
13 and -14 satisfy this condition
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent that number as x
and the square of x is x^2
So,
x + x^2 = 182
Subtract 182 from both sides
x + x^2 - 182 = 182 - 182
x + x^2 - 182 = 0
rearrange the quadratic equation
x^2 + x -182 = 0
let's use the quadratic formula
or 
a = 1, b = 1, c = -182
or 
or 
or 
or 
or 
13 or - 14
Lets check
13 + 13^2 = 13 + 169
= 182
Also,
-14 + (-14^2) = -14 + 196
= 182
