Answer:

y value = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

You are going to be completing the square

y = - x^2 - 10x + 24 Take a minus outside the brackets for the first 2 terms.

y = - (x^2 + 10x) + 24

Take 1/2 the linear term (1/2 10 and square it. Put that value inside the brackets. 1/2* 10 =5; 5^2 = 25

y = - (x^2 + 10x + 25) + 24

Add 25 outside the brackets.

y = -(x^2 + 10x + 25) + 24 + 25. You should stop here and consider why you are adding 25 outside the brackets. It is because there is a - sign in front of the trinomial and what is inside the brackets is really - 25 when the brackets are removed. Therefore to balance that, you add 25.

Now complete the square.

y = - ( x + 5)^2 + 49

The value you seek is 49.

I'll confirm this with a graph.

Find two numbers such that the sum of their squares is 100. The square of the larger number is equal to the sum of the product o

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y are two numbers

According to question

$x^2+y^2=100$ ....(1)

Suppose x is larger than y

$x^2=x(4y+8x)$

$x=4y+8x$

$x-8x=4y$

$-7x=4y$

$y=-\frac{7}{4}x$

Substitute the value of y

$x^2+(-\frac{7}{4}x)^2=100$

$x^2+\frac{49}{16}x^2=100$

$\frac{16x^2+49x^2}{16}=100$

$\frac{65}{16}x^2=100$

$x^2=\frac{16\times 100}{65}$

$x=\sqrt{\frac{1600}{65}}=\frac{40}{\sqrt{65}}=\frac{40}{65}\sqrt{65}=\frac{8}{13}\sqrt{65}$

$y=-\frac{7}{4}\times \frac{8}{13}\sqrt{65}=-\frac{14}{13}\sqrt{65}$
