(a-b)(a-b)=a^2-2ab+b^2\\\\a^2-2ab+b^2=a^2-b^2\\2b^2=2ab\\b^2=ab\implies a=b \vee b=0

So, sometimes.

Find the solution to the following system using substitution or elimination: y = 3x + 2 y = -2x - 8 O A. (-5,-) OB. (-2,-4) O C.
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

B. (-2,-4)

Explanation

Given equations:

   y = 3x + 2

   y = -2x - 8

Solving both equations will yield the values of x and y;

Solution:

   y = 3x + 2    ----- (i)

   y = -2x - 8   ------ (ii)

Using substitution method, input equation i, into ii

    3x + 2 = -2x - 8

Collect like terms and solve;

     3x + 2x = -8 -2

         5x  = -10

            x  = -2

Then put x = -2 into i, to find y

      y = (-2 x 3) + 2

       y = -6 + 2 = -4

So, the solution of the equation is B. (-2,-4)

What is the vertex of the graph of y = x2 + 4x?<br> (–2, –12)<br> (–2, –8)<br> (–2, –6)<br> (–2, –4)
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: The vertex of the parabola (quadratic function) is (-2,-4)

Fourth option: (-2,-4)


Solution:

y=x^2+4x

y=ax^2+bx+c; a=1, b=4, c=0

Vertex: V=(h,k)

h=-b/(2a)

h=-4/(2(1))

h=-4/2

h=-2

y=x^2+4x

k=y=h^2+4h

k=(-2)^2+4(-2)

k=4-8

k=-4

Vertex: V=(h,k)

Vertex: V=( -2, -4)

Is (-4,4) the solution of the system. 4x+5y&gt;-6 and -2x+7y&gt;20
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

  It is <em>a</em> solution, one of an infinite number of solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can check to see if the given point is in the solution set:

  4(-4) +5(4) = -16 +20 = 4 > -6 . . . . yes

  -2(-4) +7(4) = 8 +28 = 36 > 20 . . . yes

The offered point satisfies both inequalities, so is in the solution set. It is not <em>the</em> solution, but is one of an infinite number of solutions.
