Subtracting the second equation by 18 on both sides, we have xy=-18. Next, we divide both sides by x to get y=-18/x Plugging that into the first equation, we have x+2(-18/x)=9. Multiplying both sides by x, we get x^2-36=9x. After that, we subtract both sides by 9x to get x^2-9x-36=0. Finding 2 numbers that add up to -9 but multiply to -36, we do a bit of guess and check to find the answers to be -12 and 3. Factoring it, we get
x^2-12x+3x-36=x(x-12)+3(x-12)=(x+3)(x-12). To find the x values, we have to find out when 0=(x+3)(x-12). This is simple as when you multiply 0 with anything, it is 0. Therefore, x=-3 and 12. Plugging those into x=-18/y, we get x=-18/y and by multiplying y to both sides, we get xy=-18 and then we can divide both sides by x to get -18/x=y. Plugging -3 in, we get -18/-3=6 and by plugging 12 in we get -18/12=-1.5. Therefore, our points are (-3,6) and (12, -1.5)
Answer:
false
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
£15
Step-by-step explanation:
Angad : Nick = 5 : 1
Let
Nick share = x
Angad share = x + £60
Angad : Nick
5 : 1 = x + £60 : x
5/1 = x + 60 / x
Cross product
5 * x = 1 * x + 60
5x = x + 60
5x - x = 60
4x = 60
x = 60/4
x = 15
Nick get £15
(1) 2 of one step equations
x - 23 = 8
x - 23 + 23 = 8 + 23
x = 31
n + 2 = 9
n + 2 - 2 = 9 - 2
n = 7
(2) 2 equations with fractions
3/4 (x + 3) = 9
4 [ 3/4 (x + 3) ] = 4[9]
3 (x + 3) = 36
3x + 9 - 9 = 36 - 9
3x/3 = 27/3
1/3 x 3/4
cross multiply
so 3/12 and simplify which makes it
1/4
(3) distributive property
3(2 + 4) = (3 • 2) + (3 • 4)
3(6) = 6 + 12
18 = 18
