Essentially when people ask you find the solution to system of equation, there asking at what x value do these to graphs intersect. The easiest way to do this is to get a graphing calculator, or desmos and type in the equation and find where they intersect. Heck, even the question says to solve it with a graph, but I'll demonstrate it algebraically.

One way you can do this is set the equation equal to each other. This is because you want to know at what x-value has the same y-value. So we get:

x^2 + 6x + 8 = x + 4

We can then combine like terms, or move everything to one side. So we get:

x^2 + 5x + 4 = 0.

Then we can use the quadratic formula to solve for x.

x=(-5 +/- sqrt(5^2 - 4(1)(4)))/(2(1)

This simplifies into:

(-5 +/- 3)/2

Finally we add and subtract:

(-5 + 3)/2 = x = -1
(-5 - 3)/2 = x = -4

And our solution is x = -1, x = -4

Find a1 if Sn = 89,800, r = 3.4, and n = 10. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

a_1=1.04

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a geometric  sequence with:

Sn = 89,800, r = 3.4, and n = 10

Where

Sn is the sum of the sequence

r is the common ratio

a_1 is the first term in the sequence

n is the number of terms in the sequence

The formula to calculate the sum of a finite geometric sequence is:

S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}

Then:

89,800=\frac{a_1(1-(3.4)^{10})}{1-3.4}

Now we solve for a_1

89,800(1-3.4)=a_1(1-(3.4)^{10})

a_1=\frac{89,800(1-3.4)}{1-(3.4)^{10}}\\\\a_1=1.04
