Answer:

x=1/4

y = -2

(1/4, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x -y =3

y =-8x

substitute y =-8x into the first equation. Everywhere you see y put 8x

4x -y =3

4x - (-8x) =3

4x+8x=3

combine like terms

12x = 3

divide by 12

12x/12x = 3 /12

x = 1/4

now we need to find y

y = -8x

y = -8 * 1/4

y = -2

If (a+bi)^2=2abi, what must be the relationship between a and b? Show or explain your reasoning.

Klio2033 [76]

$(a+bi)^2 =(a+bi)(a+bi)= a^2 +2abi+b^2 i^2 \\ \\ i^2 = -1 \\ \\ (a+bi)^2 = a^2-b^2 +2abi = 2abi \\ \\ a^2 -b^2 = 0 \\ \\ a^2 = b^2 \\ \\ a = b$

For the statement to be true, 'a' and 'b' must be equal

*First expand the binomial using FOIL, then set it equal to whats given "2abi".
Then you can find the relationship between a and b.

The given expression is:
(x/2) + 5

Let's look at each terms separately:
x/2 means that you you're getting half the value of a number
+5 means that you are adding 5
Combining both, you can conclude that you are adding 5 to half a certain given number.

Comparing this with the choices, the correct choice would be:
C. five more than half a number.
