Is that the top or bottom? Assuming it's the top, when distributing the -2 to what's inside the parenthesis, they were correct in multiplying -2•7, but when they multiplied -2 and -y, the answer needs to be positive 2y because they are multiplying double negatives

Answer:
x = 8 or x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 6x + 9 = 25
x^2 - 6x - 16 = 0
The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is equal to x = [-b +/-√(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a
with a = 1
b = -6
c = -16
substitute in the formula
x = [-(-6) +/- √(-6^2 - 4(1)(-16))]/2(1)
x = [6 +/- √(36 + 64)]/2
x = [6 +/- √10]/2
x = [6 +/- 10]/2
x1 = [6 + 10]/2 = 16/2 = 8
x2 = [6 - 10]/2 = -4/2 = -2
Answer:
<h2>C. $1,689.00</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount spent by Tim be x and the amount spent by Nikko be y
If Tim spent $55 more than 2/3 of the amount that Nikko spent for his computer, then amount spent by Tim will be x = 55+2/3 y
Since the total amount that Tim and Nikko spent for their computers was $2,870 then;
x+y = $2,870
Substituting x = 55+2/3y into the equation above, we will have;
55+2y/3 + y = 2,870
(165 + 2y)/3 + y = 2,870
(165 + 2y+3y)/3 = 2,870
cross multiply
165 + 2y+3y = 3*2870
165+5y = 8610
5y = 8610-165
5y = 8445
y = 8445/5
y = 1689
<em>Hence Nikko spent a sum of $1,689.00 on his computer.</em>
