Let's solve your system by substitution.

−3x+5y=−9;4x+8y=12

Step: Solve−3x+5y=−9for x:

−3x+5y=−9

−3x+5y+−5y=−9+−5y(Add -5y to both sides)

−3x=−5y−9

−3x

−3 = −5y−9 −3

(Divide both sides by -3)

x=

-3x + 5y = -9

4x + 8y = 12

Simplify the second,

x + 2y = 3

Times three,

3x + 6y = 9

Add to the first equation,

11y = 0

y = 0

-3x + 5(0) = -9

x = 3

Answer: x=3, y=0

The equation of a parabola is y=x2+6x+9. Write the equation in vertex form.
nignag [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form is accomplished by completing the square on the quadratic. Do this by first setting the parabola equal to 0 then moving the constant over to the other side:

x^2+6x=-9

Now take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is 6. Half of 6 is 3, and 3 squared is 9:

x^2+6x+9=-9+9

The reason we do this is to create a perfect square binomial on the left:

(x+3)^2=0 (obviously the 0 results from the addition of 9 and -9). Move the 0 back over to the other side and set the quadratic back equal to y:

(x+3)^2+0=y

This gives you a vertex of (-3, 0), which is a minimum value, since the parabola opens upwards.

Francisco and Ryan are stuck simplifying radical expressions. Francisco has simplified to the quantity of x to the one half powe
Wewaii [24]
X to the one half power, over x to the three eighteenth power is equal to x to the one half power, divided by x to the one sixth power, which equals x to the power of (one half minus one sixth), or x to the one third power. 

<span>The twenty seventh root of the quantity of x to the second times x to the third times x to the fourth equals the twenty seventh root of x to the ninth power which equals x to the one third power. </span>

<span>I cannot say whether Francisco and Ryan started with equivalent expressions but on final simplification they ended up the same. One might reasonably assume they started with equivalent expressions, but who knows if they made any mistakes in their simplifications.</span>

In the year 2000, there were 5,000 people living in the town of Clairmont. By 2010, the population had grown to 5,600. What is t
weeeeeb [17]
Given:
2000 - 5,000 people
2010 - 5,600 people

(5600 - 5000) / 5000 = 600/5000 = 0.12
0.12 * 100% = 12%

The percent of change is 12%. It means that the number of people increase by 12% from the original number of 5,000 in year 2000.
