    Double variable equation- how to solve?

    so, if i wanted to state the values of x and y, would this look correct. x belongs to real numbers. y belongs to real numbers. are there any restrictions i would encounter in this, or would the above description be fitting. x and y do not have to be > 0 or anything along those lines right...

    Double variable equation- how to solve?

    i follow how you managed to get that far, although i forgot to mention but i am supposed to find the values of x and y.

    Double variable equation- how to solve?

    ran into this equation and wondering how to solve it. currently doing pre calculus in high school and don't think i have learned this yet but i was curious as to how to solve it and the answer. 36^x=9(32^y). any help and if you have advice on how to do this could you list the answer below so...

    Highest number impossible to make with 6,9,20.

    dont think your right there, well don't think i stated the answer clear enough. you have to add, use their sums, not multiply. I know for a fact that the answer is below one million.

    Highest number impossible to make with 6,9,20.

    What is the highest number you cannot make with the numbers 6, 9, or 20. Integers obviously. if you don't understand what i am asking, for example, you can't make 14, so which is the largest number you can't make since once you get so high you can make every number. Is there a quick or...

    Solving for x in Large Right Triangle

    es that makes sense, that is what i got. i must have done some bad math too, because i didn't think 9000000 would work when applied to the triangle,b ut i now see it does. thanks for the help.

    Solving for x in Large Right Triangle

    this has me very confused, even though it seems like it should be easy. when i expand from the pythagorean theorem i get x^2-9000000x=0, put that in quadratic formula and i get either 9000000 or 0. which doesn't seem right and doesn't work when i apply it to the triangle. what am i doing wrong...

    Solving for x in Large Right Triangle

    wha happens to me was when i worked out the other side stuff got cancelled. ill have a go at it, take wha you said and let you know how it goes.

    Solving for x in Large Right Triangle

    i get simply x^2-9000000x=0. I am thinking this is wrong though because to use the quadratic formula would give you 9000000-9000000, which equals 0/2, or 0.

    Solving for x in Large Right Triangle

    A large right triangle has a hypotonuse of 2000x+1125. The other sides are 2000x-1125 and x. solve for x. I have tried this with pythagoreon theorem and solving a quadratic and what not but can't get it to work out. maybe i am just making a simple mistake but i can't get it to work out.

    Pirates Dividing Loot Question- NEW

    i don't know if there is an easier way, i'd like to know too. i used the equation you gave me 27t=1024p+175, started from zero and increased p which finally gave me a whole number when i got to 20.
