Answer:

4.95 and 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=7.2

x-y=2.7

Add equations

x+y + x-y= (2x-y+y)=2x

7.2+2.7=9.9

Therefore 2x=9.9 x=9.9/2=4.95

x=4.95

x+y=7.2

4.95+y=7.2

y=7.2-4.95=2.25

y=2.25

Answer:

4.95 and 2.25.

Step-by-step explanation: This is really long... (PLEASE TAKE NOTE THE INFO ISNT DIRECTLY WRITTEN BY ME).


Adding equations (1) and (2), we get

Therefore

x=4.95


Substituting value of x from (3) in (1), we get


y=2.25


From (3) and (4), the two numbers are 4.95 and 2.25.

Which is a solution to the equation?<br> (x-3)(x-5)= 35<br> x=-8<br> x=-5<br> 0 x=2<br> 3= 10
TEA [102]

Answer:

x= -2 OR x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

(x−3)(x−5)=35

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x2−8x+15=35

Step 2: Subtract 35 from both sides.

x2−8x+15−35=35−35

x2−8x−20=0

Step 3: Factor left side of equation.

(x+2)(x−10)=0

Step 4: Set factors equal to 0.

x+2=0 or x−10=0

x=−2 or x=10
