1:       2x+y=3
         5x-2y=12

2:      Multiply the first equation by 2
         (2) (2x+y=3) => 4x+2y=6

3:      Add
         4x+2y=6
    +   5x-2y=12
______________
         9x=18               The y's cancel out
         9x/9=18/9         The 9's cancel out
         x=2

4:     Plug (x=2) back into either equation but, I'm going to do the first one. It's  easier.
         2(2)+y=3
             4+y=3
          4-4+y=3-4         The 4's cancel out
                y=-1
Answer: (12,-1)
If you plug (x) and (y) back in it will equal 3 for the first and 12 for the second.

Consider the parabola given by the equation: f(x) = 2x2 + 14.0 – 4
Softa [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)  = 2x² + 14x - 4

= 2(x² + 7x) - 4

= 2(x² +7x + 3.5²) - 2(3.5²) - 4

= 2(x+3.5)² - 28.5

vertex (3.5, -28.5) = (7/2, -57/2)

The vertical intercept is the y-intercept, i.e., f(0) = -4.

The x-intercepts are the values of x for which y=0.

2x² + 14x - 4  = 0

x = [-14±√(14²-4(2)(-4))]/[2(2)] = [-7±√57]/2 ≅ -7.27, 0.27
