Ok, basically if you want to find when both equations are equal just make them equal to each other. 0.925x^2 - 4x + 20 = -1.125x^2 + 6x + 40.
From there use algebraic steps to find out what x is ( the break - even point ).
0.925x^2 - 4x + 20 = -1.125x^2 + 6x + 40
0.855625x - 4x + 20 = 1.265625x + 6x + 40
-0.41x - 4x + 20 = 6x + 40
-4.41x + 20 = 6x + 40
20 = 10.41x + 40
-20 = 10.41x
-1.92122958694 = x
Rounded to the nearest tenth it's -1.9 = x.
Tell me if I got something wrong :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x, y ) → (- 1, 3 )
The solution to the system of equations is the point of intersection of the 2 lines
From the graph, that is (x, y ) → ( - 1, 3 )
We can confirm by solving algebraically
Since both equations express y in terms of x we can equate the right sides
- x + 2 = - 6x - 3 ( add 6x to both sides )
5x + 2 = - 3 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
5x = - 5 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = - 1
substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations for y-coordinate
y = - x + 2 = 1 + 2 = 3
solution is (x, y ) → (- 1, 3 )
Answer:
y = -x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 6 => y = -x + 6
The line that parallel to y = -x + 6 has same slope so m = -1
Using coordinates (-4,8)
y = mx + b
8 = (-1)(-4) + b
8 = 4 + b
b = 4
then y = -x + 4
