Answer:

b must equal 7 and a second solution to the system must be located at (2, 5).

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the first equation:

y = (x - 3)^2 + 4

From this we see that the vertex is at the point (3,4).

So one solution of equation 2 is (3 ,4).

Substituting in equation 2:

4 = -3 + b

b = 7.

So equation 2 is y = - x + 7.

Now we check if  (2, 5) is on this line:

5 = -2 + 7 = 5 , therefore  (2, 5) is on this line.

Verifying if (2, 5)  is also on y = (x - 3)^2 + 4:

5 = (2 - 3)^2 + 4 =  1 + 4 = 5

- so it is. and a second solution to the system is (2, 5).

melomori [17]

Answer:

Ratio of sweaters to dresses = 8 : 5

Sum of ratios = 13

Let number of sweater + dresses = x

number \ of \ sweaters = \frac{8}{13} *x\\\\24 = \frac{8}{13}*x\\\\x = \frac{24*13}{8} = 3*13 = 39

number \ of \ dresses = 39 - 24 = 15
