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
What’s the question? I don’t have enough info.
F(x) = -x+2
F(x-4) = ?
-(x+4)+2 = -x-4+2 = -x-2.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
(12-7x)
Step-by-step explanation:
144 − 49x²
by observation, we can see that 144 = 12² and 49 = 7²
hence we can rewrite the equation
144 − 49x²
= 12² - 7²x²
= 12² - (7x)²
recall that the expression x² - y² = (x+y)(x-y)
hence,
12² - (7x)²
= (12 + 7x)(12-7x)
(12-7x) appears in the expression above, hence 12 -7x is a factor
