Answer:

x = 3

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = -1

2x – 3y =12

Using substitution means that in one equation you solve for a variable. In this case, the first equation would be easier to solve for x since there are no coefficients.

x = -2y - 1

Now, we plug in the value of x into the second equation, and solve for y.

2 (-2y - 1) - 3y = 12

-4y - 2 - 3y = 12

-7y - 2 = 12

-7y = 14

y = -2

Since we have a numerical value of y, we can use it to solve for x by plugging it into one of the original equations.

x + 2(-2) = -1

x - 4 = - 1

x = 3

If you'd like to check the answer, plug in both values you got to the original equations!

I hope this helps!

We can split it up into

( \frac{x^4+2x^2}{x^2+2})+(  \frac{1}{x^2+2} )= (\frac{x^2(x^2+2)}{x^2+2})+(  \frac{1}{x^2+2} )x^2+\frac{1}{x^2+2}
I see you were supposed to use synthetic division

not sure what the 'related function is'
but as |x| approaches positivie infinity, y approaches positive infinity
as |x| approaches negative infinity, y approaches positive infinity

for the original function
as x approaches positivie infinity x^2+ \frac{1}{x^2+2} approaches positive infinity
as x approaches negative infinity x^2+ \frac{1}{x^2+2} approaches positive infinity
this is due to the x^2 term making it positive

Mid point formula

(x1 + x2) , (y1+y2)
---------      --------
    2             2
Thus for x it would be (6+(-2)) /2 or 4/2 or 2.
For y (-4 + 4) / 2 or 0 / 2  or  0.
Mid point is (2,0)
