Y=2x+8 and y= -2/3x. Identify the value of x that simultaneously satisfies both equations.

Let's solve this by subst. (-2/3)x for y in y=2x+8.

Then 2x+8 = (-2/3)x.  (For clarity you must use those parentheses.)

The LCD is 3.  Mult. both sides by 3, obtaining

6x+24 = -2x.  Then 8x = -24, and x = -3.  Now that you have a value for x, subst. this value (-3) into either of the given equations to determine y.

Then write your solution in the form (-3,  ??  ).

When you subtract one negative integer from another will your answer be greater than or less than the integer you started with
MatroZZZ [7]

Subtracting a negative integer is the same as adding a positive integer. Adding a positive integer to any number always makes the answer larger than the original number. Therefore, if you subtract one negative integer from another your answer will be always be *greater* than the integer you started with.

A quadratic function f(x)=ax2 passes through (0,0) and (5,5). write an equation for this function
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

y = (1/5)x² or  y = x²/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function f(x) = ax² and are given that the point (5,5) is on the parabola.  We need to find 'a'.   f(x) can be replaced with 'y', so we can rewrite the equation as...

y = ax²    

We know that when x = 5, y = 5, so we have

5 = a(5²)      now simplify...

5 = 25a

5/25 = a

1/5 = a, so our equation becomes

(1/5)x² or  x²/5  (the expressions are equal)
