      thinking about it geometrically makes it easier. solving two equations meant to find the points where the st line interests/touches(if only had 1 solution) the circle. and then add the coordinates for required answer

    I solved this in my head by imagining a circle of radius 5 located at the origin and a linear equation with intercept of 10 and slope pf negative 2. I then just guessed and checked integer values to see where they would intersect. I suppose this doesn't work for more complicated examples, but it worked nicely here!

  • @AzureKyle

    Solved this in less than a minute without even needing the second equation. Just looking at x^2+y^2=25 immediately made me think of the classic 3, 4, 5 right triangle, where 3^2+4^2=5^2, with 5^2 being 25. This tells me that x and y are 3 and 4, doesn't matter which, as the question just asks what x+y equals. 3+4=7, and that's the answer. The second equation really just determines what x and y specifically are, as 2*3=6, and 6+4=10, therefore x=3 and y=4, though you don't need to know which is which specifically for this problem.

    When you say, in the min 1:42, that it can be "x-3=0" or "x-5=0". Why don't you think that both can be zero and that way you can say that x=0? I mean 0 multiplied 0 it is 0...
    After that you can see that this cannot be the answer because y would not be the same number in both equation, but it's just an doubt. (Sorry for my English, not my first language)
    I say this because my teachers always forced us to think about the X being 0!

    Thumbnail doesn't say what the restrictions are. The pairs I get for (x, y) are (5, 0) and (3, 4). So if x and y must be positive, the ? is 7. Otherwise, it could also be 5, because if we solve for ? we get a quadratic that simplifies to ? = 6 +/- 1.

      x^2 + y^2 + 2xy - 2xy = 25
      => (x+y)^2 - 2xy = 25
      => root of [ (x+y)^2 - 2xy ] = root of 25
      => x+ y - root of 2xy = 5
      and yeah you have to realise that x^2 + y^2 is not the same as (x+y)^2....Its fine we all make mistakes but with that equation that was a big blunder

    You my young friend have a beautiful mind, you leave me speechless, do you have a channel that can help young American children. Your brain is most definitely not in question. But..putting that into layman's terms to help struggling children would be a God send to the. Have you ever seen the movie where Ryan Reynolds plays a teacher...wow if I had him in school, learning would have been an adventure, could you take that challenge 😃😉💞💞💞💞👋😃🦘🇦🇺🐨💫.
