Answer:
B. (1,5) and (5.25, 3.94)
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is where the 2 equations intersect.
We need to solve the following system of equations:
y = -x^2 + 6x
4y = 21 - x
From the second equation:
x = 21 - 4y
Plug this into the first equation:
y = -(21 - 4y)^2 + 6(21 - 4y)
y = -(441 - 168y + 16y^2)+ 126 - 24y
y = -441 + 168y - 16y^2 + 126 - 24y
16y^2 + y - 168y + 24y + 441 - 126 = 0
16y^2 - 143y + 315 = 0
y = [-(-143) +/- sqrt ((-143)^2 - 4 * 16 * 315)]/ (2*16)
y = 5, 3.938
When y = 5:
x = 21 - 4(5) = 1
When y = 3.938
x = 21 - 4(3.938) = 5.25.
Answer:
it's 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Number 3 is 3 units away from 0, and thus the absolute value of 3 is 3.
Answer: "reduced by a factor of One-third."
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that the original magazine has a length L and a width W.
If it is photocopied using a scale factor of K, then the measures of the photocopy will be:
length = K*L
Width = K*W
In this case, the scale factor is K = 1/3, then the measures of the photocopy will be:
length = (1/3)*L = L/3
Width = (1/3)*W = W/3
For usual notation:
When k > 1, we have an enlargement by a factor k
when 0 < k < 1, we have a reduction by a factor k
in this case, k = 1/3, then:
We have a reduction by a factor of 1/3
The correct option is:
"reduced by a factor of One-third."
