Answer:

x = 9

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up equations:

x + y = 15

x - y = 3

Let's rearrange one of these equations to use the substitution method:

x - y = 3

Add y to each side:

x = y + 3

Substitute in for x:

x + y = 15

y + 3 + y = 15

Combine like terms:

( y + y ) + 3 = 15

2y + 3 = 15

Subtract 3 from each side:

2y = 12

Divide each side by 2:

y = 6

Substitute this in to find the other variable:

x + y = 15

x + 6 = 15

Subtract 6 from each side:

x = 9

Describe the nature of the roots for the equation 49x2 - 28x + 4 = 0.
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

We conclude that 49x² - 28x + 4 = 0 has only one real root.

Thus, option B i.e. one real root is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

49x² - 28x + 4 = 0

comparing with the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 for x, where a ≠ 0,

here

a = 49, b = -28, c = 4

Determining the discriminant b²-4ac

b²-4ac = (-28)² - 4(49)(4)

           = 784 - 784

           = 0

It is clear that the discriminant b²-4ac is equal to zero.

i.e.

b²-4ac = 0

We know that if the discriminant b²-4ac = 0, then the quadratic equation has one real root.

Therefore, we conclude that 49x² - 28x + 4 = 0 has only one real root.

Thus, option B i.e. one real root is the correct option.
