Consider the system of equations. y = −2x + 4 y = − 1/3x − 1

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We have two values for y. Since y=y, this means that −2x + 4 and − 1/3x − 1 are equal as well, so we can put them in an equation and solve for x.

−2x + 4 = − 1/3x − 1

We subtract 4 from both sides.

-2x=-1/3x-5

We add 1/3 x to both sides.

-5/3x=-5

We divide both sides by -1 2/3.

x=3

Now, we plug this into one of the original equations to find y.

y=-2(3)+4

y=-6+4

y=-2

Therefore, the solution is (3,-2) or x=3 and y=-2.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D

No question is asked so I'm not sure what you are looking for but below I calculated the point where the two equations intersect:
y - x = 4 → y = x + 4
y = - x² + 6x
x + 4 = - x² + 6x
x² - 5x + 4 = 0
(x - 4)(x - 1) = 0
 x = 4, x = 1

when x = 4, then y = x + 4 = 4 + 4 = 8 → (4,8)
when x = 1, then y = x + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5 → (1,5)

The line and parabola intersect at two points: (4,8) and (1,5)

The variance is the total of the squared distances of the given data from the mean. 

This can be calculated through the equation,
        
                            σ² = summation of X² / N  - μ²

where σ² is the variance X's are the data, N is the number of terms, and μ is the mean.

   summation of X² = 100² + 100² + 120² + 120² + 180² = 81200
                          N = 5
                                        μ = (100 + 100 + 120 + 120 + 180) / 5
                                         μ = 124

Substituting these values to the equation for variance,
                                 
                              σ² = (81200/5) - 124² = 864

Thus, the variance is equal to 864.
