Need help with a system of equations
sweet [91]

Answer:

\boxed{x - y = -2\sqrt{7}}

Given:

x + y = 4 \\  \\  {x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}  = 22 \\  \\  {x}^{4}  =  {y}^{4}  - 176 \sqrt{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

=  >  {x}^{4}  =  {y}^{4}  - 176 \sqrt{7}  \\  \\  =  >  {x}^{4}  -  {y}^{4}  =  - 176 \sqrt{7}  \\  \\  =  >  {( {x}^{2}) }^{2}  -  { ({y}^{2}) }^{2}  =  - 176 \sqrt{7}  \\  \\  =  > ( {x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2} )( {x}^{2}  -  {y}^{2} ) =  - 176 \sqrt{7}  \\  \\  =  > ( {x}^{2} +  {y}^{2})  (x + y)(x - y) =  - 176 \sqrt{?}  \\  \\  =  > 22 \times 4(x - y) =  - 176 \sqrt{7}  \\  \\  =  > 88(x - y) =  - 176 \sqrt{7}  \\  \\ =  >  x - y =  -  \frac{176 \sqrt{7} }{88}  \\  \\  =  > x - y =  - 2 \sqrt{7}

Identity used:

{x}^{2}  -  {y}^{2} = (x + y)(x - y)

Given the following 2 equations, state whether these equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Neither

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is generally given as;

y=mx+b

where m = the slope of the line

b = the y-intercept of the line

Two lines are said to be parallel if they have the same slope. Looking at the two given equations below, we see that the slope of the 1st one, 5/7, is different from the slope of the 2nd one, 7/5;

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{5}{7}x+14 \\ y=\frac{7}{5}x-20 \end{gathered}

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other, let's go ahead and compare their slopes;

\begin{gathered} m_1=\frac{5}{7} \\ m_2=\frac{7}{5} \\ \therefore m_2=\frac{1}{m_1_{}} \end{gathered}

So the two lines are not perpendicular to each other. It, therefore, means that the correct answer will be Neither.
