To find the solutions to the system, we need to find exactly when one expression is equal to the other. We can do this by setting both of the right sides equal to each other, so that


(x-5)(x+6)=x+6


Subtracting x+6 from either side, we find


(x-5)(x+6)-(x+6)=0


factoring out an x+6:


(x+6)(x-5-1)=(x+6)(x-6)=0


x=\pm6


The x-coordinates of our solutions will therefore be 6 and -6. Since the question only asks for the <em>x-coordinate</em> of the midpoint, we simply need to find the number exactly halfway between 6 and -6, which is 0.

\bf \begin{cases}y=(x-5)(x+6)\\y=x+6\end{cases}\qquad \stackrel{y}{(x-5)(x+6)}=\stackrel{y}{x+6}\\\\\\\stackrel{FOIL}{x^2+x-30}=x+6\implies x^2-36=0\implies x^2=36\\\\\\x=\pm\sqrt{36}\implies \boxed{x=\pm 6}\\\\\\\stackrel{\textit{substituting that \underline{x} in the second equation}}{y=\pm 6 + 6}\implies y=\begin{cases}12\\0\end{cases}\\\\\\\stackrel{solutions}{(6,12)\qquad \qquad (-6,0)}


now, let's find the midpoint of those two solutions


\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{12})\qquad  (\stackrel{x_2}{-6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0}) \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 +  x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 +  y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left(\cfrac{-6+6}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{0+12}{2}  \right)\implies (\stackrel{x}{0}~,~6)

Write an algebraic expression for the verbal expression the sum of g squared and four.
frez [133]

Answer:

g^2 + 4

I literally do not know how to explain it. I solved this problem with the clues like sum and squared. I looked at where these words were located.

Prism M and pyramid N have the same base area and the same height. Cylinder P and prism Q have the same height and the same base
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Answer Cone Z and Cylinder Y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the volume of the cone and the volume of the cylinder with the same height and same base is the volume of the cone is 1/3 of the volume of the cylinder.

The formula for the volume of the cone is :

V = 1/3πr^{2}h

The formula for the volume of the cylinder is :

V = πr^{2}h

Let be the height of the cylinder Y. Therefore the height of the cone Z is 3h, when we put it into the formula we get :

V = 1/3πr^{2} (3h) = πr^{2}h

Therefore Cone Z and Cylinder Y have same volume.

Judy bought a coat at a 20% discount sale for $68. What was the original price of the coat?
11111nata11111 [884]
80% of (Cost) = $68

80% is also 0.8:

0.8 x Cost = $68

dividing each side by 0.8

Cost = 68 / 0.8 = 85 = $85
