Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. x^2 + 6x = 5
x^2 + 6x + 9 = 14
(x+3)^2 = 14
x =
- 3
2. x^2 + 8x -4 = 0
x^2 + 8x = 4
x^2 + 8x + 16 = 20
(x+4)^2 = 20
x =
- 4
The mixed number for 4.8 is 4 4/5
What do the two variables represent?
The two variables represent the number of nights or squires at the jousting contest.
Write a system of equations.
let k = number of knights and let s = number of squires
3k + 2s = 32
2k + s = 19
How many knights are there? <u>6</u>
How many squires are there? <u>7</u>
Solving:
solve for s in the second equation by subtracting 2k from both sides
2k + s = 19
s = 19 - 2k
substitute into first equation
3k + 2(19-2k) = 32
distribute 2 into 19-2k
3k + 38 - 4k = 32
add like terms
-k + 38 = 32
subtract 38 from both sides
-k = -6
divide by -1
k = 6
subsitute into the equation for s
s = 19 - 2k
s = 19 - 2(6)
s = 19 - 12
s = 7
Answer:
2x+3+5x+6 = 7x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3 + 5x + 6
= 2x + 5x + 3 + 6
= 7x + 9

<u>Answer-</u>
<em>The winner read </em><em>5 pages</em><em> more than the loser.</em>
<u>Solution-</u>
In the x axis days of the week is represented.
In the y axis number of pages read is represented.
Total pages read by each can be calculated by adding the number of pages read by them each day i.e starting from Monday to Friday.
Total number of pages read by Javi is,

Total number of pages read by Merianne,

So, Javi is the winner because she read 125-120=5 pages more than Merianne.
