Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x2 - y2 = 9.........(1)
x2 + 2y2 = 38......(2)
Let x^2 = a and y^2 = b
:- the two equations becomes
3a - b = 9..........(3)
a + 2b = 38.......(4)
Multiplying (4) by 3
3a + 6b = 114........(5)
Substracting (3) from (5)
3a - 3a + 6b - (-b) = 114 - 9
6b +b = 105
7b = 105
b = 105/7
b = 15
And 3a - b = 9 putting b = 15
3a - 15 = 9
3a = 15+9
3a = 24
a = 24/3
a = 8
And
x^2 = a
x^2 = 8
x = √8
x = √(4×2)
x = 2√2
Also y^2 = b
y^2 = 15
y = √15
Answer:
a. Sage and Tom have the same number of talk minutes left on their cell phone plans.
b. y = x - 7
Explanation:
Sage talked for 7 minutes with her dad.
Tom talked for 4 minutes with a friend and 3 more minutes with his mom which means he spoke for :
= 4 + 3
= 7 minutes
They both spoke for 7 minutes and therefore have the same amount of time left.
Algebraic expression:
Assuming the time Tom started with is denoted by x and the time he is left with is denoted by y.
The expression is:
y = x - 7
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply exponent rule: a^-1 = 1/a
(2/3)^1 = 1/2/3
Apply the fraction rule: 1/a/c = c/b
3/2
