Use elimination to create a one variable equation.

x-3y=15 -> 2x-6y=30

2x-6y=30

+(-2x-4y=10)

------------------

-10y=40

Then solve (for y in this case).

y=-4

Now we can use the value for y to solve for x.

x-3y=15 -> x-3(-4)=15 -> x=3

Complete the square to solve 4x^2 + 24x = 4

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

4x^2+24x=4

Step 1:

make the coefficient of x² as 1, divide both sides by 4

x² +6x =1

Step 2:

take half of coefficient of x, square it and add it to both sides

half of 6 is 3 and 3²=9, so add 9 to both sides

x² +6x+9=1+9

x²+6x+3²=10

(x+3)²=10

now when we take square root we will get both + and - √10 on right side

x+3= +√10

x+3=-√10

solving for x

x=+√10-3
