Answer:

x = 20 y= 12

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=32

x−y=8

Add the two equations together to eliminate y

x+y=32

x−y=8

----------------

2x = 40

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 40/2

x = 20

We know x so we can find y

x+y = 32

20+y = 32

20+y-20 = 32-20

y= 12

Find a number C such that the polynomial p(x)= -x+4x^2+Cx^3-8x^4

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

C = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$p(x)= -x+4x^2+Cx^3-8x^4 \\ \\ \because \: given \: polynmial \: has \: zero \: at \: \\x = \frac{1}{4} \\ \\ \implies \: p\bigg(\frac{1}{4} \bigg) = 0...(1) \\ \\ plug \: x = \frac{1}{4} \: in \: p(x) \: we \: find \\ \\ p \bigg(\frac{1}{4} \bigg) = - \frac{1}{4} + 4 {\bigg(\frac{1}{4} \bigg)}^{2} + c {\bigg(\frac{1}{4} \bigg)}^{3} - 8 {\bigg(\frac{1}{4} \bigg)}^{4} \\ \\ 0 = - \frac{1}{4} + \cancel 4 \times {\frac{1}{\cancel{16} } } + c {\bigg(\frac{1}{64} \bigg)} - \cancel 8 \times \frac{1}{\cancel{256} } \\ \\0 =\cancel{ - \frac{1}{4}} + \cancel {{\frac{1}{4} }} + c {\bigg(\frac{1}{64} \bigg)} - \times \frac{1}{32} \\ \\0 = c {\bigg(\frac{1}{64} \bigg)} - \frac{1}{32} \\ \\c {\bigg(\frac{1}{64} \bigg)} = \frac{1}{32} \\ \\ c = \frac{1}{32} \times 64 \\ \\ c = 2$

Part 1: Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (–1, –4) and (2, 5).

jeyben [28]

Y - (-4) = (5 - (-4))/(2 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y + 4 = (5 + 4)/(2 + 1) (x + 1)
y + 4 = 9/3 (x + 1)
y + 4 = 3(x + 1)
y + 4 = 3x + 3
y = 3x + 3 - 4
y = 3x - 1
