They give us 2 pieces to the puzzle. Both are positive numbers...x and y.
1.) 1 number is 1 less than twice another number. (x = 2y -1)...and
2.) the sum of their squares is 106. (x^2 + y^2 = 106).
substitute the value for x into the second equation.
(2y-1)^2 + y^2 = 106
(2y-1) (2y-1) + y^2 = 106 (use distributive property)
4y^2 - 2y - 2y + 1 + y^2 = 106 (subtract 106 from both sides)
4y^2 - 2y - 2y + 1 + y^2 - 106 = 106 - 106 (combine like terms)
5y^2 - 4y - 105 = 0 (factor)
(y-5) (5y-21) = 0 (set to 0)
y - 5 = 0
y = 5
substitute the 5 into the equation for y (x = 2(5) - 1)
x = 9 if we square 9, we get 81.
subtracted from 106 we have 25...the square root of 25 is 5.
our answers are 5 and 9.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeros of a function are where it crosses the x axis, so just find the coordinates for the x intercepts.
1.
and 
2.
and 
6% is less than 1, so it can't be any whole number.
Answer: (-24,2)
=======================================
Work Shown:
The y coordinate stays the same. Only the x coordinate will change.
(1/4)*x = -6
x = -6*4
x = -24 is the new x coordinate
Plugging x = -24 into f((1/4)x) leads to f(-6) = 2
