Answer:

8 = r; (9, 8)

Explanation:

-y₁ + y₂\-x₁ + x₂ = m

-2 + r\3 + 9 = ?\12

-2 + r = 6

+2 + 2

__________

r = 8

The reason why the expression has to equal 6 is because 6⁄12 simplifies to ½, and the numerator has to be a six in order to get the rate of change [slope] of ½, so there you have it.

Factorize x^2/16+xy+4y^2

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

$\frac{x^2}{16} +xy+4y^2$ can be factored out as: $(\frac{x}{4} +2\,y)^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the formula for the perfect square of a binomial :

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$

Now, let's try to identify the values of $a$ and $b$ in the given trinomial.

Notice that the first term and the last term are perfect squares:

$\frac{x^2}{16} = (\frac{x}{4} )^2\\4y^2=(2y)^2$

so, we can investigate what the middle term would be considering our $a=\frac{x}{4}$ , and $b=2y$ :

$2\,a\,b=2\,(\frac{x}{4}) \,(2\,y)=x\,y$

Therefore, the calculated middle term agrees with the given middle term, so we can conclude that this trinomial is the perfect square of the binomial:

$(\frac{x}{4} +2\,y)^2$

Solve each system of equations; nonlinear algebra 2 x2 + x + y - 26 = 0 x + y = 1

BigorU [14]

Answer:

(5,-4) and (-5,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}x^2+x+y-26=0\\ \\x+y=1\end{array}\right.$

Solve it. First, express y in terms of x from the second equation:

$y=1-x$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$x^2+x+1-x-26=0\\ \\x^2-25=0\\ \\(x-5)(x+5)=0$

Apply zero product property:

$x-5=0\ \text{or}\ x+5=0$

So,

$x=5\ \text{or}\ x=-5$

When $x=5,$ then $y=1-5=-4$

When $x=-5,$ then $y=1-(-5)=6$

We get two solutions: (5,-4) and (-5,6)

Rick buys and sells antiques via the Internet. So far, he has profited $2,502. Based on his profits to date, he developed the fo

kow [346]

Answer:

d. An additional month of buying and selling is associated with an additional $417 in profits.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have general form of intercept form of equation:

y = m*x + c ----- (A)

Given equation is : y = 2502 + 417*x

Rewrite equation: y = 417*x + 2502 ------(B)

comparing equation (B) with equation (A), we get

m = 417 (additional benefits per month) because multiplied factor x is the month.

Tony misplaced 7 77 stamps from his collection. He knows that each stamp of his is worth $ 0 . 1 5 $0.15dollar sign, 0, point, 1

denis23 [38]

I take it that only 7 stamps are misplaced and that we are asked for the total value of the stamps including those which have been misplaced.
If each is worth $0.15 then, the total worth of 7 stamps is $1.05. Then, we add this value to the value of his remaining stamps, $5.55, the answer would be $6.60.
