Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Translating the phrase into an equation, we get:

And:

So the system of equations would be:

If you want to put it into slope-intercept form, you can simplify both equations:


Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
3x^5 -2x^4 -x^2 +x -21
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to subtract g(x) from f(x)
f(x) = 3x^5 +6x^2 -5
g(x) = 2x^4 +7x^2 -x+16
f(x) -g(x) = 3x^5 +6x^2 -5 - (2x^4 +7x^2 -x+16)
Distribute the minus sign
3x^5 +6x^2 -5 - 2x^4 -7x^2 +x-16
I like to line them up vertically
3x^5 +6x^2 -5
- 2x^4 -7x^2 +x-16
---------------------------------------
3x^5 -2x^4 -x^2 +x -21
Turn the percentage into a decimal by sliding the decimal twice from the right to the left and multiply it to the number
add/subtract it depending on if it's increasing or decreasing
First, you want all the variables to be on one side:
a - 3b = 4
a - b = -2
Now you want to eliminate one of the variables, in this case a is easiest.
Subtract the second equation from the first and you're left with:
-2b = 6
so b = -3
Sub the value of b back into either of the equations and solve for x:
a - (-3) = -2
a = -5
So your answer is (-5,-3)
