Answer:

x = 3 or 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve by completing the square:

x^2 - 10x + 1 = -20

First, move the constants to one side:

x^2 - 10x = -21

Then, add (\frac{-10}{2})^2 to both sides to make the right a perfect square trinomial, which is easy to factor:

x^2 - 10x + (\frac{-10}{2})^2 = -21 + (\frac{-10}{2})^2

Simplify and Factor:

x^2 - 10x + 25 = -21 + 25

(x - 5)^2 = 4

Finally, square root both sides using the even roots property:

\sqrt{(x - 5)^2} = \sqrt{4}

x - 5 = ± 2

x = 5 ± 2

x = 3   or   x = 7

Jon has to choose which variable to solve for in order to be able to do the problem below in the most efficient manner.
yuradex [85]

The most efficient way to solve this problem is isolating the y in the first equation because:

6x + 3y = 27

3y = 27 - 6x

y = 9 - 2x

Since all the numbers have a common factor of 3, it can be easily simplified/reduce.

If you used any other variable, you would have gotten a fraction.

Now that you found y, you can substitute it into the other equation to solve for x.  

ANYWAYS, your answer is A

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

DA²= CB×CA

6²= y×(y+5)

36=y²+5y

y²+5y-36=0

x1+x2=-5

x1×x2=36

x1=4

x2=-9

x must be positive, then answer is 4

chek: 4×9=36
