7x + 7y = -21

48x - 8y = 136 This is where you find a common sum.

8(7x + 7y = -21) ex: 7 and 8

7(48x - 8y = 136)

56x + 56y = -168 Multiply it out

336x -56y = 952

392x = 784 Divide/Simplify

x = 2

Now substitute to find Y. I hope this helped!

ycow [4]

The centre point is given by;
$( \frac{ x_{2}+ x_{1} }{2} , \frac{ y_{2} + x_{1} }{2} )$
= $( \frac{4+4)}{2} + \frac{-4+(-6)}{2} )$
= $( \frac{8}{2} , \frac{-10}{2} )$
=(4, -5)

Write an equation of the parabola in intercept form that passes through (−18, 72) with x-intercepts of −16 and −2.

seraphim [82]

y = a(x + 16)(x + 2)

72 = a(-18 + 16)(-18 + 2)

72 = a(-2)(-16)

72 = a(32)

$\frac{72}{32} = a$

$\frac{9}{4} = a$

Answer: y = $\frac{9}{4}$ (x + 16)(x + 2)
