(a). 8x + y = 20, where (b). y = x2 - 2x + 4
So where y is in equation (a), substitute in the value of y in (b).
8x + (x2 - 2x + 4) = 20
8x + (4) = 20
Get rid of the 4 on both sides (since what you do to one side, you must do to the other)
8x + 4 - 4 = 20 - 4
8x = 16
Get rid of the 8 to leave x on its own
8x ÷ 8 = 16 ÷ 8
x = 2
So now that you have x, find y but substituting in the value you just found (2) into one of the starting equations.
8x + y = 20 where x is 2.
8(2) + y = 20
16 + y = 20
Minus 16 from both sides
y = 20 - 16 = 4
So x is 2 and y is 4

Answer:

Solution of the equation is (2,4) and (-8,84) .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given the equation

y = x² - 2x + 4

8x + y = 40

Putting y = x² - 2x + 4 in 8x + y = 40 .

8x + x² - 2x + 4 = 40

x² + 6x + 4 = 20

x² + 6x + 4 -20 = 0

x² + 6x - 16 = 0

x² + 8x - 2x - 16 = 0

x(x+8)-2(x+8) = 0

(x+8)(x-2) = 0

x = -8 , x = 2

Put x = -8 in the equation 8x + y = 20 .

8 × -8 + y = 20

-64 + y = 20

y = 20 + 64

y = 84

Put x = 2 in the equation 8x + y = 20 .

8 × 2 + y = 20

16 + y = 20

y = 20 - 16

y = 4

Therefore solution of the equation is (2,4) and (-8,84) .

Max claims that a point on any line that is perpendicular to a segment is equidistant from a segment's endpoints. Charlene claim

yan [13]

Answer:

Charlene claim is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Max claims that a point on any line that is perpendicular to a segment is equidistant from a segment's endpoints.

It is not necessary as shown in the diagram (a).

Charlene claims that the line must be a perpendicular bisector for a point on the line to be equidistant from a segment's endpoints.

It is true as shown in the diagram (b).

So, Charlene claim is true.

Consider the statement, "Confidence intervals are underutilized" and explain what the implications might be of using or not usin

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence intervals have been underutilized prior to this time.

The implications of not using confidence intervals include:

- The under-representation or over-representation of research results that amounts from the use of a single figure to represent a statistic.

- In Market Research analysis, neglecting the use of confidence intervals will increase the risk of your portfolio.

Implications/Importance of using confidence intervals include:

- Calculation of confidence interval gives additional information about the likely values of the statistic you are estimating.

- In the presentation and comprehension of results, confidence intervals give more accuracy from the data or metrics captured.

- Given a sample mean, confidence intervals show the likely range of values of the population mean.

What is the measure of x?

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Hello!

After reviewing the problem you have provided I have come up with the correct solution:

x= 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To come up with this solution you have to first realize that the smaller triangle is a proportionally scaled down version of the entire larger triangle! (I will show what I mean in a linked picture)

So after we have realized that the smaller triangle is a scaled down version of the larger one, we can then create a formula or ratio to calculate the value of the missing side of the larger triangle (being x+6=??).

To create the formula/ratio I divided 10inches by 4inches. Thus the larger triangle is 2.5 times larger than the smaller one.

I then use this ratio to figure out the missing length of the larger triangle by doing:

6inches x 2.5 = 15inches.

I then inputed the 15inches into the formula of the missing side:

x+6=15

Subtracted 6 from both sides to simplify, and came up with the solution!

x=9

Let me know if this helps!
