Answer:

  • smaller x value:    -1,-8
  • larger x value:  5,16

The parenthesis part is already taken care of by the teacher.

=================================================

Explanation:

y is equal to x^2-9 and also 4x-4. We can equate those two right hand sides and get everything to one side like this

x^2-9 = 4x-4

x^2-9-4x+4 = 0

x^2-4x-5 = 0

Then we can use the quadratic formula to solve that equation for x.

x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-4)\pm\sqrt{(-4)^2-4(1)(-5)}}{2(1)}\\\\x = \frac{4\pm\sqrt{36}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{4\pm6}{2}\\\\x = \frac{4+6}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{4-6}{2}\\\\x = \frac{10}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-2}{2}\\\\x = 5 \ \text{ or } \ x = -1\\\\

Or alternatively

x^2-4x-5 = 0

(x-5)(x+1) = 0

x-5 = 0 or x+1 = 0

x = 5 or x = -1

------------------------------

After determining the x values, plug them into either original equation to find the paired y value.

Let's plug x = 5 into the first equation:

y = x^2-9

y = 5^2-9

y = 25-9

y = 16

Or you could pick the second equation:

y = 4x-4

y = 4(5)-4

y = 20-4

y = 16

We have x = 5 lead to y = 16

One solution is (x,y) = (5,16)

This is one point where the two curves y = x^2-9 and y = 4x-4 intersect.

If you repeat the same steps with x = -1, then you should find that y = -8 for either equation.

The other solution is (x,y) = (-1,-8)

Answer:

(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-1,-8} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(smaller $x$-value)}

(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{5,16} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations:

\begin{cases}y=x^2-9\\y=4x-4\end{cases}

To solve by the method of substitution, substitute the first equation into the second equation and rearrange so that the equation equals zero:

\begin{aligned}x^2-9&=4x-4\\x^2-4x-9&=-4\\x^2-4x-5&=0\end{aligned}

Factor the quadratic:

\begin{aligned}x^2-4x-5&=0\\x^2-5x+x-5&=0\\x(x-5)+1(x-5)&=0\\(x+1)(x-5)&=0\end{aligned}

Apply the <u>zero-product property</u> and solve for x:

\implies x+1=0 \implies x=-1

\implies x-5=0 \implies x=5

Substitute the found values of x into the <u>second equation</u> and solve for y:

\begin{aligned}x=-1 \implies y&=4(-1)-4\\y&=-4-4\\y&=-8\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}x=5 \implies y&=4(5)-4\\y&=20-4\\y&=16\end{aligned}

Therefore, the solutions are:

(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-1,-8} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(smaller $x$-value)}

(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{5,16} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}

Answer:

b. infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

-\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}y=-1\\\\\textsf{subtract} \ -\frac{1}{2}y \ \textsf{from both sides:}\\\\\implies -\frac{1}{2}x=-1-\frac{1}{2}y\\\\\textsf{mulitply both sides by -2:}\\\\\implies x=2+y\\\\\textsf{subtract} \ y \ \textsf{from both sides:} \ x-y=2

Therefore, the graphs are the same.

If the graphs of the equations are the same, then there are an infinite number of solutions that are true for both equations.
