Because the coefficient of x^2 is -1, we know that a will be -1. Knowing that the coefficient of x is -4, we can calculate that p=2. Thus, we have -1(x+2)^2+q is our equation. This is equal to -x^2-4x-4+q. As the constant term must be 2, we can then see that q is 6.
As such, we have -1(x+2)^2+6=0 as our factorization.
To solve this equation, we can use the quadratic formula. Plugging in values, we have:
which is equal to: (when the fraction is simplified)
Answer:
Billie's age = x = 17 years
Tony's age = y = 31 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Billie's age = x
Tony's age = y
Twice Billie’s age decreased by 3 is Tony’s age.
y = 2x - 3..... Equation 1
Tony is fourteen years older than Billie.
x = y - 14
We substitute y - 14 for x in Equation 1
y = 2x - 3..... Equation 1
y = 2(y - 14) - 3
y = 2y - 28 - 3
y - 2y = -28 - 3
-y = -31
y = 31 years
Solving for x
x = y - 14
x = 31 - 14
x = 17 years.
Therefore:
Billie's age = x = 17 years
Tony's age = y = 31 years
283.5
So you multiply 6.75 by 21 stools to find the total number of meters. Then you multiply that by 2.
Answer:
180°

It will be answer ...............
Step-by-step explanation:
MID POINT =[(X1 +X2)/2 , (Y1 +Y2)/2]
WE KNKW THAT A(2,–8) AND THE MID POINT IS (3,3)
SUBSTITUTING INTO THE EQUATION ABOVE
(3,3) = [(2+ X2)/2 ,(–8+ Y2)/2]
EQUATING THE X COORDINATES
=> 3 = (2+ X2)/2 (CROSS MULTIPLY)
=> 6 = 2 + X2
X(subscript 2)= 4
EQUATING THE Y COORDINATES
=> 3 =(–8 +Y2)/2 (CROSS MULTIPLY)
6 = –8 +Y2
=> Y(subscript 2)= 14
THEREFORE THE COORDINATES OF B ARE (4 ,14)
hope this helps :)
