If you rotate the triangle 180 degrees around the origin I’ll only go half way of that triangle
Essentially when people ask you find the solution to system of equation, there asking at what x value do these to graphs intersect. The easiest way to do this is to get a graphing calculator, or desmos and type in the equation and find where they intersect. Heck, even the question says to solve it with a graph, but I'll demonstrate it algebraically.
One way you can do this is set the equation equal to each other. This is because you want to know at what x-value has the same y-value. So we get:
x^2 + 6x + 8 = x + 4
We can then combine like terms, or move everything to one side. So we get:
x^2 + 5x + 4 = 0.
Then we can use the quadratic formula to solve for x.
x=(-5 +/- sqrt(5^2 - 4(1)(4)))/(2(1)
This simplifies into:
(-5 +/- 3)/2
Finally we add and subtract:
(-5 + 3)/2 = x = -1
(-5 - 3)/2 = x = -4
And our solution is x = -1, x = -4
Answer:
54 Pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that they start off with 67.5 pounds of sugar and they need to reduce it by 20%. We also know from the problem that we want to know the MAXIMUM amount of sugar consumed by each track member.
The typical high school student consumes about 67.5 pounds of sugar per year. That is our first piece of the problem
67.5
We now know that 20% of it needs to be reduced. This means that we can multiply it by 0.8 because that is 20% less than 100% of the sugar.
67.5 x 0.8
This leads the answer to be 54 Pounds
Hope this helped :D
Answer:
slope = m = 7/5
y-intercept = b = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
y = 7/5 x - 3
slope = m = 7/5
y-intercept = b = -3
