    Yes, that makes sense. And you're right: I'm not familiar with those equations.

    MHB Solving system of linear inequalities

    There is no need to be rude. I just wanted to know if there was another way of doing it.

    MHB Can You Balance Two Jobs and Meet Your Weekly Financial Goals?

    You can work a total of no more than 41 hours each week at your two jobs. Housecleaning pays \$6 per hour and your sales job pays \$9 per hour. You need to earn at least \$252 each week to pay your bills. Are the answers: x+y\le 41 6x+9y\ge252 How would you solve this? Thanks

    I have \$15 to buy pencils and notebooks from a bookstore. If pencils are \$0.50 each and a notebook costs \$1.50, then how many pencils and notebooks can I buy if I spent all of the money? I reasoned: .5x+1.5x=15 x= 7.5 So 7 notebooks and 7 pencils. Is this correct?Thanks

    MHB Solution To Equation Involving Square Root: Extraneous Solution?

    Hi everyone, What is the solution set of the equation: sqrt{x+2}= x-4 I got 2 and 7. Is it correct or is it just 7. If so why? Thanks:)

    MHB Which measure of center is most accurate for the batting averages of a team?

    The guidelines state that the mean should be used if the values are similar, and that the median should be used if there are outliers, yet the answers are reversed.So I'm confused.
