Solve x+148x2+x+2310x2=3

 

Substitute: y=x2ory2=x2x=y2+2

 

x+148x2+x+2310x2=3y2+2+148y+y2+2+2310y=3y28y+16+y210y+25=3y28y+16=(y4)2=(4y)2y210y+25=(y5)2=(5y)2

 

Case 1:y28y+16=(y4)2y210y+25=(y5)2(y4)2+(y5)2=3y4+y5=32y9=32y=9+32y=12y=6Case 2:y28y+16=(y4)2y210y+25=(5y)2(y4)2+(5y)2=3y4+5y=313no solution!Case 3:y28y+16=(4y)2y210y+25=(5y)2(4y)2+(5y)2=34y+5y=32y+9=32y=932y=6y=3Case 4:y28y+16=(4y)2y210y+25=(y5)2(4y)2+(y5)2=34y+y5=313no solution!


First solution:y=6x=y2+2x=62+2x=38Second solution:y=3x=y2+2x=32+2x=11

At a concession​ stand,three hot dog(s) and two hamburger(s) cost ​$8.25​;two hot dog(s) and three hamburger(s) cost ​$8.00. Find the cost of one hot dog and the cost of one hamburger. What is the cost of one hot dog​?  

 

                                                              3 Dogs + 2 Burgers = 8.25    (1)  

                                                              2 Dogs + 3 Burgers = 8.00    (2)  

 

Multiply equation (1) by 2                       6D + 4B = 16.50                    (3)  

Multiply equation (2) by 3                       6D + 9B = 24.00                    (4)  

 

Subtract equation (3) from (4)                        5B  =  7.50  

Divide both sides by 5                                       B  =  1.50   One Burger costs $1.50  

 

Substitute 1.50 for B in (1)                      3D + (2)(1.50)  =  8.25  

                                                                3D + 3.00         =  8.25  

Subtract 3.00 from both sides                                    3D  =  5.25  

Divide both sides by 3                                                  D  =  1.75   One Dog costs $1.75
