How can completing the square aid in solving quadratic functions?

1 answer:

Elden [556K]3 years ago

Completing the squares tells us exactly what square root we will need to calculate our answer.

Using the formula below you can find these answers:
$A(x-h)^2 + K = 0
(x-5)^ 2 = - K/A
$

Does this make sense?

I DONT KNOW THESE! HELP!

Answer:

20. x = 5, y = -2

21. x = 11, y = 12

22. x = 22, y = 11

23. x = 11, y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

20. Opposite sides in the parallelogram are congruent, so

$2y+18=3x-1\\ \\6x-3=17-5y$

Solve this system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}2y-3x=-19\\ \\6x+5y=20\end{array}\right.$

Multiply the first equation by 2 and add two equations:

$2(2y-3x)+6x+5y=2\cdot (-19)+20\\ \\4y-6x+6x+5y=-38+20\\ \\9y=-18\\ \\y=-2$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$2\cdot (-2)-3x=-19\\ \\-3x=-19+4\\ \\-3x=-15\\ \\x=5$

21. Opposite angles in the parallelogram are congruent, so

$11x+5=10y+6$

Consecutive angles are supplementary, so

$6x-y+11x+5=180^{\circ}$

Solve this system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}11x-10y=1\\ \\17x-y=175\end{array}\right.$

From the second equation

$y=17x-175$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$11x-10(17x-175)=1\\ \\11x-170x+1750=1\\ \\-159x=-1749\\ \\x=11\\ \\y=17\cdot 11-175=187-175=12$

22. Opposite angles in the parallelogram are congruent, so

$2x-5=3y-12$

Consecutive angles are supplementary, so

$2x-5+7y+x=180^{\circ}$

Solve this system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}2x-3y=-7\\ \\3x+7y=185\end{array}\right.$

From the first equation

$x=-3.5+1.5y$

Substitute it into the second equation:

$3(-3.5+1.5y)+7y=185\\ \\-10.5+4.5y+7y=185\\ \\-105+45y+70y=1,850\\ \\115y=1,850+105\\ \\115y=1,955\\ \\y=17\\ \\x=-3.5+1.5\cdot 17=22$

23. Opposite sides in the parallelogram are congruent, so

$2x+9=4y-9\\ \\3x-5=2y+8$

Solve this system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}2x-4y=-18\\ \\3x-2y=13\end{array}\right.$

Multiply the second equation by 2 and subtract it from the first equation:

$2x-4y-2(3x-2y)=-18-2\cdot 13\\ \\2x-4y-6x+4y=-18-26\\ \\-4x=-44\\ \\x=11$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$2\cdot 11-4y=-18\\ \\-4y=-18-22\\ \\-4y=-40\\ \\y=10$

Find the equation of the line that passes through the point of intersection of x + 2y = 9 and 4x -2y = -4 and the point of inter

Rudik [331]

Answer:

$y=-6x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

The point of intersection of

$x+2y=9...eqn1$

and

$4x-2y=-4...eqn2$

is the solution of the two equations.

We add equation (1) and equation(2) to get,

$x+4x+2y-2y=9+-4$

$\Rightarrow 5x=5$

$\Rightarrow x=1$

We put $x=1$ into equation (1) to get,

$1+2y=9$

$\Rightarrow 2y=9-1$

$\Rightarrow 2y=8$

$\Rightarrow y=4$

Therefore the line passes through the point, $(1,4)$ .

The line also passes through the point of intersection of

$3x-4y=14...eqn(3)$

and

$3x+7y=-8...eqn(4)$

We subtract equation (3) from equation (4) to obtain,

$3x-3x+7y--4y=-8-14$

$\Rightarrow 11y=-22$

$\Rightarrow y=-2$

We substitute this value into equation (4) to get,

$3x+7(-2)=-8$

$3x-14=-8$

$3x=-8+14$

$3x=6$

$x=2$

The line also passes through

$(2,-2)$

The slope of the line is

$slope=\frac{4--2}{1-2} =\frac{6}{-1}=-6$

The equation of the line is

$y+2=-6(x-2)$

$y+2=-6x+12$

$y=-6x+10$ is the required equation

How do I solve this?

zmey [24]

Hey there!!

Multiply both the sides with 4/3.

Then we get

x = 5 ^ 4/3

x = 8.5 ( avg. )

Hope it helps!
