Answer:
B. (1,5) and (5.25, 3.94)
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is where the 2 equations intersect.
We need to solve the following system of equations:
y = -x^2 + 6x
4y = 21 - x
From the second equation:
x = 21 - 4y
Plug this into the first equation:
y = -(21 - 4y)^2 + 6(21 - 4y)
y = -(441 - 168y + 16y^2)+ 126 - 24y
y = -441 + 168y - 16y^2 + 126 - 24y
16y^2 + y - 168y + 24y + 441 - 126 = 0
16y^2 - 143y + 315 = 0
y = [-(-143) +/- sqrt ((-143)^2 - 4 * 16 * 315)]/ (2*16)
y = 5, 3.938
When y = 5:
x = 21 - 4(5) = 1
When y = 3.938
x = 21 - 4(3.938) = 5.25.
If the roots to such a polynomial are 2 and

, then we can write it as

courtesy of the fundamental theorem of algebra. Now expanding yields

which would be the correct answer, but clearly this option is not listed. Which is silly, because none of the offered solutions are *the* polynomial of lowest degree and leading coefficient 1.
So this makes me think you're expected to increase the multiplicity of one of the given roots, or you're expected to pull another root out of thin air. Judging by the choices, I think it's the latter, and that you're somehow supposed to know to use

as a root. In this case, that would make our polynomial

so that the answer is (probably) the third choice.
Whoever originally wrote this question should reevaluate their word choice...

Answer:
1
m = ---
12
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is y2-y1
---------
x2-x1
(x1,y1) (x2,y2)
(3,-5) (-9,-6)
You get the 2 Y's and subtract them
Do the same with the X's
Y's above , X's below
(y2- y1)
⬇
-6-(-5) -1 1
--------- = ---- = ---- = m
-9-(3) -12 12
⬆
(×2- x1)
This equation is backwards, thats why it was harder to understand. (-9,-6) is farther left and below point (3,-5), making it the REAL first point in the equation.
Answer:
X= 9//
Step-by-step explanation:
abc = efg
ac + cd = eg + gh
9 + (x+2) = 6 + (2x-4)
9 - 6 = 2x-4 - (x+2)
3 = x - 6
3+6 = x
9 = x//
