Answer: The first day the author reaches 100 days is on day 16.

To solve this problem, you could use a graphing calculator to graph the given equation. Then, determine when this line crosses 100. It crosses when x = 15.539. Therefore, we would have to round up to 16 so it is at least 100.

You could use the quadratic equation to solve: 100 = x^2 -12x + 45

Either you will get 16. If you use the quadratic formula, make sure to only use the positive answer.

nika2105 [10]

Answer: (4,-4)

y=-4, x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x=4y

4x-8y=12

-8y=-4x+12  Now I can substitute -4x for 4y

-8y=4y+12

-2y=y+12

-3y=12

y=-4

-4x=4y

-4x=4(-4)

x=4
