Solve 7 ( x + 1 ) + 2 = 5x + 15
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x + 1) + 2 = 5x + 15
~Simplify left side
7x + 7 + 2 = 5x + 15
~Combine like terms
7x + 9 = 5x + 15
~Subtract 9 to both sides
7x = 5x + 6
~Subtract 5x to both sides
2x = 6
~Divide 2 to both sides
x = 3
Best of Luck!
Need help with this- Precalculus
use x^2 when x=0 because the restriction for it is "use x if x is less than or equal to 1"
when x = 0, (0)^2 will make f(x) = 0
the graph of f(x) will just be a dot at 0
Find the intersection of the line and the circle given below
2x+y=-5
x^2+y^2=10
Answer:
There are two intersections.
(-3,1) and (-1,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
They intersect at (-3,1), and also (-1,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Graph:
if (a + b) = 73 and a b =65 find value of a²+ b²
Step-by-step explanation:
Here,
by formula a^2+b^2=(a+b)^2-2ab
so,
or,(a+b)^2-2ab
or,(73)^2-2×65
or,5329-126
=5203 is the answer
Question 4 4 pts Lori buys a $1500 certificate of deposit (CD) that earns 6% interest that compounds monthly. How much will the CD be worth in: 5 years? 10 years? 486 months?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5 years
[tex]1500(1+\frac{.06}{12})^{12*5}=2023.275229[/tex]
10 years
[tex]1500(1+\frac{.06}{12})^{10*12}=2729.095101[/tex]
486 months:
[tex]1500(1+\frac{.06}{12})^{486}=16935.47074[/tex]

At a concession stand; three hot dogs and two hamburgers cost $9.75; two hot dogs and three hamburgers cost $10.25. Find the cost of one hot dog and the cost of one hamburger.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
hot dog: $1.75hamburger: $2.25Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the cost of a hot dog and a hamburger, respectively. The the two purchases can be described by ...
3x +2y -9.75 = 0
2x +3y -10.25 = 0
We can list the coefficients of these general-form equations in 2 rows, listing the first one again at the end:
3, 2, -9.75, 3
2, 3, -10.25, 2
Now, we can form differences of cross-products in adjacent pairs of columns:
d1 = (3)(3) -(2)(2) = 9 -4 = 5
d2 = (2)(-10.25) -(3)(-9.75) = -20.50 +29.25 = 8.75
d3 = (-9.75)(2) -(-10.25)(3) = -19.50 +30.75 = 11.25
Then the solutions are found from ...
1/d1 = x/d2 = y/d3
x = d2/d1 = 8.75/5 = 1.75
y = d3/d1 = 11.25/5 = 2.25
The cost of one hot dog is $1.75; the cost of one hamburger is $2.25.

This is my simplification of the "cross-multiplication method" of solving a pair of linear equations. That method can be found described on web sites and in videos. This version, and the versions described elsewhere, are variations on Cramer's Rule and on the Vedic Maths method of solving equations. Each of those do similar differences of cross products, perhaps in less-easily-remembered fashion.
For a given pair of columns with coefficients ...
a b
c d
The cross-product we form is ad -cb.
