3x + 4 = x+ 8   >  3x - x = 2x   >  2x + 4 = 8 >  8 - 4 = 4 > 2x / 2 crosses out > 4 / 2 = 2 > x=2
2y + 5 = y + 7 >  2y - y = y >  y+ 5 = 7 >  7-5= 2 > y=2 
 
the perimeter of the kite is 4

Explain how to write a quadratic equation given the following three points on the graph (5,31) (3,11) (0,11)
masha68 [24]

Given:

The graph of a quadratic function passes through the points (5,31) (3,11) (0,11).

To find:

The equation of the quadratic function.

Solution:

A quadratic function is defined as:

y=ax^2+bx+c            ...(i)

It is passes through the point (0,11). So, substitute x=0,y=11 in (i).

11=a(0)^2+b(0)+c

11=c

Putting c=11 in (i), we get

y=ax^2+bx+11               ...(ii)

The quadratic function passes through the point (5,31). So, substitute x=5,y=31 in (ii).

31=a(5)^2+b(5)+11

31-11=a(25)+5b

20=25a+5b

Divide both sides by 5.

4=5a+b                  ...(iii)

The quadratic function passes through the point (3,11). So, substitute x=3,y=11 in (ii).

11=a(3)^2+b(3)+11

11-11=a(9)+3b

0=9a+3b

Divide both sides by 3.

0=3a+b                 ...(iv)

Subtracting (iv) from (iii), we get

4-0=5a+b-3a-b

4=2a

\dfrac{4}{2}=a

2=a

Putting a=2 in (iv), we get

0=3(2)+b

0=6+b

-6=b

Putting a=2,b=-6 in (ii), we get

y=(2)x^2+(-6)x+11

y=2x^2-6x+11

Therefore, the required quadratic equation is y=2x^2-6x+11.

Find the value of x. *<br><br> 50 PTS!<br><br> 5<br> 25<br> 5√2<br> 50
Aneli [31]

Answer:

  • Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this with the help of Pythagoras theorem.

  • => (√50)² = x² + x²
  • => √50 x √50 = x² + x²
  • => 50 = 2x²
  • => 25 = x²
  • => x = 5

Hence, the value of x is 5 units.
