Answer: A. 2x2 - 3x - 8

Just subtract the functions and combine like terms
(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)
(f - g)(x) = 2x^2 - 5 -(3x + 3)
(f - g)(x) = 2x^2 - 5 - 3x - 3
(f - g)(x) = 2x^2 - 3x - 8

A quadrilateral has vertices at $(0,1)$, $(3,4)$, $(4,3)$ and $(3,0)$. Its perimeter can be expressed in the form $a\sqrt2+b\sqr

seraphim [82]

Answer:

a + b = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Quadrilateral;

Vertices of (0,1), (3,4) (4,3) and (3,0)

$Perimeter = a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10}$

Required

$a + b$

Let the vertices be represented with A,B,C,D such as

A = (0,1); B = (3,4); C = (4,3) and D = (3,0)

To calculate the actual perimeter, we need to first calculate the distance between the points;

Such that:

AB represents distance between point A and B

BC represents distance between point B and C

CD represents distance between point C and D

DA represents distance between point D and A

Calculating AB

Here, we consider A = (0,1); B = (3,4);

Distance is calculated as;

$Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

$(x_1,y_1) = A(0,1)$

$(x_2,y_2) = B(3,4)$

Substitute these values in the formula above

$Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{(0 - 3)^2 + (1 - 4)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{( - 3)^2 + (-3)^2}$

$AB = \sqrt{9+ 9}$

$AB = \sqrt{18}$

$AB = \sqrt{9*2}$

$AB = \sqrt{9}*\sqrt{2}$

$AB = 3\sqrt{2}$

Calculating BC

Here, we consider B = (3,4); C = (4,3)

Here,

$(x_1,y_1) = B (3,4)$

$(x_2,y_2) = C(4,3)$

Substitute these values in the formula above

$Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

$BC = \sqrt{(3 - 4)^2 + (4 - 3)^2}$

$BC = \sqrt{(-1)^2 + (1)^2}$

$BC = \sqrt{1 + 1}$

$BC = \sqrt{2}$

Calculating CD

Here, we consider C = (4,3); D = (3,0)

Here,

$(x_1,y_1) = C(4,3)$

$(x_2,y_2) = D (3,0)$

Substitute these values in the formula above

$Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

$CD = \sqrt{(4 - 3)^2 + (3 - 0)^2}$

$CD = \sqrt{(1)^2 + (3)^2}$

$CD = \sqrt{1 + 9}$

$CD = \sqrt{10}$

Lastly;

Calculating DA

Here, we consider C = (4,3); D = (3,0)

Here,

$(x_1,y_1) = D (3,0)$

$(x_2,y_2) = A (0,1)$

Substitute these values in the formula above

$Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}$

$DA = \sqrt{(3 - 0)^2 + (0 - 1)^2}$

$DA = \sqrt{(3)^2 + (- 1)^2}$

$DA = \sqrt{9 + 1}$

$DA = \sqrt{10}$

The addition of the values of distances AB, BC, CD and DA gives the perimeter of the quadrilateral

$Perimeter = 3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{10} + \sqrt{10}$

$Perimeter = 4\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{10}$

Recall that

$Perimeter = a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10}$

This implies that

$a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10} = 4\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{10}$

By comparison

$a\sqrt{2} = 4\sqrt{2}$

Divide both sides by $\sqrt{2}$

$a = 4$

By comparison

$b\sqrt{10} = 2\sqrt{10}$

Divide both sides by $\sqrt{10}$

$b = 2$

Hence,

a + b = 2 + 10

a + b = 12

Solve by elimination.<br> 5x-7y=19<br> 7x-7y=-7

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

(x,y)=(-13,-12)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 7y = 19

7x - 7y = -7 Multiply both sides of the equation by -1

Which then gives you :

5x-7y=19 Sum the equations vertically to eliminate

-7x+7y=7 at least on variable

-2x=26 Divide both sides of the equation by -2

X=-13 Substitute the given value of x into the equation 7x - 7y =-7

7 x(-13)-7y=-7 solve the equation for y

y=-12

Thus gives you (-13,-12)

Hope this was useful!!! Sorry if it's wrong.
