Solve by substitution. We begin by manipulating the second equation (solving for y).

2x+3y=13

4x-y=-2 => -y=-4x-2 => y=4x+2

Now substitute "4x+2" for y into the first equation because y=4x+2.

2x+3y=13 becomes 2x+3(4x+2)=13

Now solve for x.

2x+3(4x+2)=13

2x+12x+6=13

14x=7

x=1/2

Now we can solve for y because we know what x is.

y=4x+2 => y=4(1/2)+2 = y=4

answer: x=1/2, y=4, intersection point (1/2,4)

Answer:

$midpoint = ( \frac{ - 4 + 6}{2} , \: \frac{ - 12 + 8}{2} ) \\ = (1, \: - 2)$

$distance = \sqrt{ {( - 4 - 6)}^{2} + {( - 12 - 8)}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{500} \\ = 22.4 \: units$

Determine whether a quadratic model exists for the set of values below. If so, write the model. f(0) = -4, f(3) = -19, f(-1) =

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

A) The model exists: f(x) = -3x^2 +4x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic model will always exist for 3 given points, provided they are not on a line. In that case, a linear model is appropriate.

Here, the slope between -1 and 0 is positive, and the slope between 0 and 3 is negative. Thus, we know these points are not collinear, and a model must exist.

The model is most easily found using a quadratic regression tool. Such is shown in the attachment. It tells us that ...

f(x) = -3x^2 +4x -4
