2 x - 5 y = 18  / * 4
3 x + 4 y = 4   / * 5  ( we will use the addition method )
--------------------------
 8 x - 20 y = 72
+
15 x + 20 y = 20
----------------------- 
23 x = 92
x = 92 : 23
x = 4
8 - 5 y = 18
- 5 y = 18 - 8
- 5 y = 10
y = 10  : ( - 5 ) 
y = - 2
Answer:
( x, y ) = ( 4, - 2 )

Find the value of the variable and DF if D is between C and F if CD 4y -9, DF 2y-7, and CF 14.
Yuri [45]
CF = CD + DF (since D is simply a point on the line, and C to that point added onto F to that point is CF), so 4y-9+2y-7=14. Adding it up, we get 6y-16=14 and adding by 16 we get 30=6y. Dividing both sides by 6, we get y=5. Plugging that into DF, we get 10-7=DF=3

If f(x) = x2 – 1 and g(x) = 2x – 3, what is the domain of (f*g)(x)?
leva [86]

(f.g)(x) =( f(x))(g(x)) \\  = ( {x}^{2}  - 1)(2x - 3) \\  = (x - 1)(x + 1)(2x - 3)
then the domain of (f•g)(x) is {-1, 1, 3/2}

A rocket is launched from a tower. The height of the rocket, why in feet is related to the time after launch, X and seconds, by
Maru [420]

Given:

Consider the height of the rocket, in feet after x seconds of launch is

y=-16x^2+152x+74

To find:

The time at which the rocket will reach its max, to the nearest 100th of a second.

Solution:

We have,

y=-16x^2+152x+74

It is a quadratic polynomial with negative leading coefficient. So, it is a downward parabola.

Vertex of a downward parabola is the point of maxima.

To find the time at which the rocket will reach its max, we need to find the x-coordinate of the vertex.

If a quadratic function is f(x)=ax^2+bx+c, then the vertex is

Vertex=\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a},f\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a}\right)\right)

Here, a=-16,b=152,c=74.

So,

-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{152}{2(-16)}

-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{152}{-32}

-\dfrac{b}{2a}=4.75

So, x-coordinate of the vertex is 4.75.

Therefore, the rocket will reach its max at 4.75 second.
