Answer:

x = 2 and y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the system of equations, use elimination. First get the coefficients of at least one variable matching then add/subtract to eliminate the variable. Then solve for the next variable.

Multiply the equation 8x + 2y = 17 by 2 so it becomes 16x + 4y = 34.

Stack the equations and add.

-6x - 4y = -14

16x + 4y = 34

-------------------

10x = 20

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 and solve for y.

-6(2) - 4y = -14

-12 - 4y = -14

-4y = -2

y = -2/-4

y = 1/2

Whats the Axis of Symmetry? willing to give 15 points !!
nydimaria [60]

The axis of symmetry of a parabola in the form

y=ax^2+bx+c

is a vertical line

x=k

where k is the x coordinate of the vertex of the parabola.

The x coordinate of the vertex of the parabola is given by

-\dfrac{b}{2a}

which in your case is

-\dfrac{-6}{2\cdot \frac{1}{4}}=\dfrac{6}{\frac{1}{2}}=6\cdot 2=12

So, the axis of symmetry is the line x=12.

Find the unknown side length, x. Write your answer in simplest radical form.
Otrada [13]

Answer:

B (5 sqrt10)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the hypotenuse is 17, and a leg is 8, that makes the other leg equal to sqrt((17^2)-(8^2)) = sqrt(289-64) = sqrt(225) = 15.

Because you subtract 3 from the leg with length 8, that makes the smaller triangles leg 5. That makes the hypotenuse sqrt(5^2 + 15^2) = 5sqrt10

I'm guessing you typoed for B and meant 5sqrt10, so the answer is B
