Good morning ☕️

Answer:

<h2>(-2 , 3)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s easier to isolate y in the first equation because the coefficient of y there is just 1.

the coefficient of x in the first equation is -3 and in the second equation is 2 then it’s not easy to isolate x in both equation.

solving the system:

−3x + y = 9

2x + 4y = 8

⇔

y = 3x + 9  (*)

2x + 4y = 8

now, we substitute y by 3x + 9 in equation 2:

2x + 4(3x + 9) = 8  ⇔ 14x + 36 = 8 ⇔ 14x = - 28 ⇔ x = -28/14 = -2

at this stage we substitute x by -2 in (*) to get y:

y = 3x + 9 ⇒ y = 3(-2) + 9 = -6 + 9 = 3

finally, the solution of the system is the ordered pair (-2 , 3).

Using the given zero, find one other zero of f(x). i is a zero of f(x).= x4 - 2x3 + 38x2 - 2x + 37.
statuscvo [17]
If i is a zero, -i is also a zero.
The way you get a complex zero is by taking the square root of a negative number. Taking the sqrt (-1) = + and - i
