Multiply the second equation by 1 to make it positive then add them together.
-x-3y=20
+x-4y=36
----------------
-7y=56
y=-8

Plug that into one of the equations above.
-x-3(-8)=20
-x+24=20
-x=20-24
-x=-4
x=4

So x=4 y=-8 or (4,-8)

Hope that helps

A = 3 b = -16 and c = 2
the radicand would be
sq root (b^2 -4*a*c) =
sq root (256 -4*3*2) =
sq root (232)
So the roots will be real and not complex.

Which quadratic relation has a y-intercept of 8?
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

y = 0.5 (x^2 -2x + 16) has a y-intercept of 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-coordinate of every y-intercept is zero.  To determine which of the four quadratics given here has a y-intercept of 8, we need only substitute 0 for x in each; if the result is 8, we've found the desired quadratic.

O y = 0.5(x + 2)(x + 4) becomes y = 0.5(2)(4) = 4 (reject this answer)

O y = 0.5 (x - 2)(x + 8) becomes y = 0.5(-2)(8) = -8 (reject)

O y = 0.5(x2 -2x - 16) becomes y = 0.5(-16) = -8 (reject)

<em>O y = 0.5 (x2 -2x + 16) becomes y = 0.5(16) = 8 This is correct; that '8' represents the y-intercept (0, 8).</em>
