Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line x=8 is a vertical line. The perpendicular line will be horizontal, with a slope of 0. In order for it to go through the given point, the y-intercept must match the y-value of the point. The equation is ...

y = 0x +4 . . . . . slope-intercept form with slope explicitly shown as 0

This simplifies to ...

y = 4

Solve the simultaneous equations<br> y = 9 - X<br> y = 2x2 + 4x + 6

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:the\:final\:solutions\:for\:}y=9-x,\:y=2x^2+4x+6\mathrm{\:are\:}$

$\begin{pmatrix}x=\frac{1}{2},\:&y=\frac{17}{2}\\ x=-3,\:&y=12\end{pmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equations

$y=9-x$

$y\:=\:2x^2\:+\:4x\:+\:6$

Subtract the equations

$y=9-x$

$-$

$\underline{y=2x^2+4x+6}$

$y-y=9-x-\left(2x^2+4x+6\right)$

$\mathrm{Refine}$

$x\left(2x+5\right)=3$

$\mathrm{Solve\:}\:x\left(2x+5\right)=3$

$2x^2+5x=3$ ∵ $\mathrm{Expand\:}x\left(2x+5\right):\quad 2x^2+5x$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}3\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$2x^2+5x-3=3-3$

$\mathrm{Solve\:with\:the\:quadratic\:formula}$

$\mathrm{Quadratic\:Equation\:Formula:}$

$\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}$

$x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=2,\:b=5,\:c=-3:\quad x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-5\pm \sqrt{5^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}v\\$

$x=\frac{-5+\sqrt{5^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}$

$=\frac{-5+\sqrt{5^2+4\cdot \:2\cdot \:3}}{2\cdot \:2}$

$=\frac{-5+\sqrt{49}}{2\cdot \:2}$

$=\frac{-5+\sqrt{49}}{4}$

$=\frac{-5+7}{4}$

$=\frac{2}{4}$

$=\frac{1}{2}$

Similarly,

$x=\frac{-5-\sqrt{5^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-3\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}:\quad -3$

$\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are:}$

$x=\frac{1}{2},\:x=-3$

$\mathrm{Plug\:the\:solutions\:}x=\frac{1}{2},\:x=-3\mathrm{\:into\:}y=9-x$

$\mathrm{For\:}y=9-x\mathrm{,\:subsitute\:}x\mathrm{\:with\:}\frac{1}{2}:\quad y=\frac{17}{2}$

$\mathrm{For\:}y=9-x\mathrm{,\:subsitute\:}x\mathrm{\:with\:}-3:\quad y=12$

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:the\:final\:solutions\:for\:}y=9-x,\:y=2x^2+4x+6\mathrm{\:are\:}$

$\begin{pmatrix}x=\frac{1}{2},\:&y=\frac{17}{2}\\ x=-3,\:&y=12\end{pmatrix}$
