Substitute 4 for y. Then -3x^2 + 16 = 52.

Solve for x. Subtract 16 from both sides, obtaining -3x^2 = 36.

Divide both sides by -3, obtaining x^2 = -12. This last result makes no sense, as no square of a real number could be negative. Probably this is where you're ":getting a negative answer."

If imaginary answers were allowed, then x = i*√12 = i*2√3 or x = -i*2√3.

You get a negative value for x² because there are no real-number solutions to the set of equations. (The graphs do not intersect.)

Solve for x^2:

... x^2 = (y^2 -52)/3 = (16-52)/3) = -12

... x = 2√(-3) = ±i·2√3

Complex numbers cannot be compared to zero. (x > 0 has no meaning in this context.) It seems possible you want the complex solution with the positive imaginary part: x = i·2√3

G ( x ) = 2 - ( x - 7 )²
g ( x ) = 2 - ( x² - 14 x + 49 )
g ( x ) = 2 - x² + 14 x - 49
g ( x ) = - x² + 14 x - 47
The maximum of the function is at:
x= - b / 2 a
x = - 14 / ( - 2 ) = 7
Therefore the function is increasing form x ∈ ( - ∞, 7 ) and decreasing for x ∈ ( 7, +∞ ).
Answer:
C.   increasing, x < 7; decreasing x > 7.

Let f(x) = 12 over the quantity of 4 x + 2 . Find f(−1). (1 point) a −6b −2c 2d 6
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

f(-1) = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 12 / ( 4x+2)

Let x = -1

f(-1) = 12 / ( 4*-1+2)

     = 12 / (-4+2)

     = 12 / -2

    = -6

Triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle, and side BC is congruent to side AC. If side AC equals 40 centimeters, and AB is one-half
Alik [6]

Answer:

100 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AC = BC

AC = 40

2AB=AC

Simplify:

BC = 40

Simplify:

2AB = 40

Algebra:

AB = 20

Here's the sides:

AB = 20

AC = 40

BC = 40

Add all of them together:
