Answer:
Assume we want to find the solution to this system of equations.
The solution is<u> (2,-2)</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the solution either mathematically or by graphing. I'll do both.
<u>Math:</u>
Rearrange:
-2x-6y=8
-6y=8 +2x
y = -(1/3)x -(4/3)
---
Now use this expression of y in the second equation:
-6x-6y=0
-6x-6(-(1/3)x -(4/3)) =0
-6x + 2x +8 =0
-4x = - 8
x = 2
---
Use x = 2 in the first equation to find y:
y = -(1/3)x -(4/3)
y = -(1/3)*(2) -(4/3)
y = -(2/3) -(4/3)
y = -(6/3) or -2
The solution is (2,-2)

the coordinates where the bridges must be built is and
.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , a road follows the shape of a parabola f(x)=3x2– 24x + 39. A road that follows the function g(x) = 3x – 15 must cross the stream at point A and then again at point B. Bridges must be built at those points.We need to find Identify the coordinates where the bridges must be built. Let's find out:
Basically we need to find values of x for which f(x) = g(x) :

Value of g(x) at x = 3 : y=3x -15 = 3(3)-15 = -6
Value of g(x) at x = 6 : y=3x -15 = 3(6)-15 = 3
Therefore , the coordinates where the bridges must be built is and
