@dpaInc ur owl is starring me down aha..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73 AHHH SATS ON ! <3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

set the y's equal and solve... the quadratic terms fall off ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[10x-6=-17x+2\] solve for \(x\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok let me do it and let me tell u guys what i get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-8=7x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add \(17x\) to both sides first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then add \(6\) to both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73 27x=8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one more step and you are done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide by 8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3.375

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you want to get \(x\) by itself, not set it equal to one divide by 27

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[27x=8\] \[x=\frac{8}{27}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but thats not an option :/ @satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OMG! SATS THAT WAS THE WRONG QUESTION :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks love ahah <3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IM SO SO SO SO SO SORRY i feel horrible.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the \(-5\) at the end moves it down 5 units, and changing \(x^2\) to \((x+2)^2\) moves it to the left 2 units

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no worries

OpenStudy (anonymous):
