Answer:

To divide by a decimal, multiply the divisor by a power of ten to make the divisor a whole number. Then multiply the dividend by the same power of ten. You can think of this as moving the decimal point in the dividend the same number of places to the right as you move the decimal point in the divisor

Hope I helped :)

Y=-x^2+2x+10 y=x+2 Substitution Please show your work Need ASAP

Answer:

The solutions of the system of equations are the points

$(\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2})$

$(\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2})$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=-x^{2} +2x+10$ ----> equation A

$y=x+2$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A

$x+2=-x^{2} +2x+10$

solve for x

$-x^{2} +2x+10-x-2=0$

$-x^{2} +x+8=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-x^{2} +x+8=0$

$a=-1\\b=1\\c=8$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4(-1)(8)}} {2(-1)}$

$x=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{33}} {-2}$

$x=\frac{-1+\sqrt{33}} {-2}$ -----> $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$x=\frac{-1-\sqrt{33}} {-2}$ -----> $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

Find the values of y

For $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$y=x+2$

$y=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}+2$ ----> $y=\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

For $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$y=x+2$

$y=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}+2$ ----> $y=\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

therefore

The solutions of the system of equations are the points

$(\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2})$

$(\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2})$

Help, my daughter is learning about finding lengths of unknown sides. I have no idea how to help on these three homework problem

Lyrx [107]

BC = 4
GE= 23
QR = 7
TR = 11
BD = 22
FG = 6

explanation: you have to look at the numbers at the opposite side of where it’s asking, for example the first one; on the opposite side of BC it’s 12 and other side is 8 and you have to find the space in between so to find BC you would have to subtract 12-8 and you’ll get 4
basically a bunch of subtraction and addition, just look at the numbers on the opposite side. hope this helps !
