1.) Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side:[tex]5k-2=17[/tex]- This is an optional step. I prefer the numbers to be on the left hand side, but it's not necessary.
Equation at the end of Step 1:
[tex]5k-2=17[/tex][tex]17=5k-2[/tex]2.) Add 2 to both sides:[tex]-2+2=[/tex] Cancels Out[tex]17+2=19[/tex]- When solving problems like this, to get k alone you have to do the opposite of what you see.
- In this case, we have a -2. So to get rid of -2 we do the opposite: +2 on each side.
Equation at the end of Step 2:
[tex]5k=19[/tex]3.) Divide both sides by 5:[tex]5k[/tex] ÷ [tex]5=k[/tex][tex]19[/tex] ÷ [tex]5=3.8[/tex]- When solving problems like this, to get k alone you have to do the opposite of what you see.
- In this case, we have 5 being multiplied by k. So to get rid of the 5 we do the opposite: Divide by 5 on each side.

The wages of 5 men and 6 boys amount to $114 per day. The wages of 7 men and 8 boys amount to $157 per day. Find the daily wages each man and each boy.
Answer:
let the wages of men and boys be x and y respectively
then
5x+6y = 114
7x + 8y = 157
multiplying equation first by 4 and second by three and subtracting equations
20x + 24y = 456
21x + 24y =471
-x = -15
x= 15 men wages
substituting value of x in equation
5x + 6y = 114
5*15 + 6y = 114
6y = 114 -75
6y = 39
y = 6.5 each boys wages

The clothing store marked down all their shirts by 30%. If a shirt originally cost $24, what is the sale price of the shirt?
Answer:
$16.80
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the shirts are marked down by 30%, you need to multiply the cost of the shirt by the percentage.
$24 × 0.3 = $7.20
Next, subtract the discount from the original price to find the discounted price.
$24 - $7.20 = $16.80
Express 236% as a mixed number in simplest form

We want to find the zeros of this polynomial:
p(x) = (2x2 – 9x + 7)(x - 2)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "x2" was replaced by "x^2".
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
p*(x)-((2*x^2-9*x+7)*(x-2))=0

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring 2x2-9x+7
The first term is, 2x2 its coefficient is 2 .
The middle term is, -9x its coefficient is -9 .
The last term, "the constant", is +7
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • 7 = 14
Step-2 : Find two factors of 14 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -9 .
-14 + -1 = -15
-7 + -2 = -9 That's it
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -7 and -2
2x2 - 7x - 2x - 7
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
x • (2x-7)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
1 • (2x-7)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(x-1) • (2x-7)
Which is the desired factorization

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:
5.1 Find the Vertex of y = 2x2-9x+7
Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex . Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) . We know this even before plotting "y" because the coefficient of the first term, 2 , is positive (greater than zero).
Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.
Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.
For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is 2.2500
Plugging into the parabola formula 2.2500 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :
y = 2.0 * 2.25 * 2.25 - 9.0 * 2.25 + 7.0
or y = -3.125
Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :
Root plot for : y = 2x2-9x+7
Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={ 2.25}
Vertex at {x,y} = { 2.25,-3.12}
x -Intercepts (Roots) :
Root 1 at {x,y} = { 1.00, 0.00}
Root 2 at {x,y} = { 3.50, 0.00}
3 Solving 2x2-9x+7 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .
According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :
- B ± √ B2-4AC
x = ————————
2A
In our case, A = 2
B = -9
C = 7
Accordingly, B2 - 4AC =
81 - 56 =
25
Applying the quadratic formula :
9 ± √ 25
x = —————
4
Can √ 25 be simplified ?
Yes! The prime factorization of 25 is
5•5
To be able to remove something from under the radical, there have to be 2 instances of it (because we are taking a square i.e. second root).
√ 25 = √ 5•5 =
± 5 • √ 1 =
± 5
So now we are looking at:
x = ( 9 ± 5) / 4
Two real solutions:
x =(9+√25)/4=(9+5)/4= 3.500
or:
x =(9-√25)/4=(9-5)/4= 1.000

Jill would like an increase in the hourly wage she receives from the Mathematics Research Center, where she works in the mail room. Her boss gives her an equation to solve, telling her that her raise is the solution to the equation, but only if she can solve it. The equation is x 2- 6x + 9 = 0. What was the amount of her raise per hour? Answer:
Answer:
Her raise per hour is $3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic Equation
The standard representation of a quadratic equation is:
[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]
where a,b, and c are constants.
It can be solved by using the quadratic formula:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
Jill asks for an increase in the hourly wage she receives. Since she works in a Maths Center, the increase comes as a maths equation.
She must solve the equation:
[tex]x^2-6x+9=0[/tex]
The solution to the equation is the increase in her hourly wage.
Comparing with the general form, we have a=1, b=-6, c=9. Thus, the solutions are:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-(-6)\pm \sqrt{(-6)^2-4(1)(9)}}{2(1)}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{6\pm \sqrt{36-36}}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{6\pm \sqrt{0}}{2}[/tex]
Since the square root is 0, there is only one solution:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{6}{2}=3[/tex]
x = 3
Thus, her raise per hour is $3.

The price of admission to the Everglades Historical Museum is $11 more for non-members than for members of the museum’s Friends of the Museum program.
If a group of 3 members and 4 non-members pays a total of $79 to visit the Museum, what is the cost, in dollars, of the ticket for one non-member?
Select one:
A. $9.00
B. $11.00
C. $15.00
D. $16.00
Answer:
d. $16.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 members (m) + 4 nonmembers (n) = $79
nonmembers = $11 more or n=m+11 so...
3m + 4(m+11)=79 [replace "n" with "m+11"]
3m + 4m + 44=79
7m + 44 = 79
7m=35 and reduced m=5 so members pay $5 and nonmembers pay 5+11=$16

Answer:
y = 64
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles are supplementary, that is sum to 180° , thus
2(x + 6) + y = 180 ← substitute x = 52
2(52 + 6) + y = 180
2(58) + y = 180
116 + y = 180 ( subtract 116 from both sides )
y = 64
