What is the solution set of y = x2 + 2x + 7 and y = x + 7? A. {(0, 7), (-1, 6)} B. {(0, 7), (-7, 0)} C. {(0, 7), (1, 8)} D. {(-2
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

If

y=x^2+2x+7 AND

y = x + 7, then by the transitive property of equality:

x^2+2x+7=x+7

We can solve for the values of x by getting everything on one side of the equals sign and then solving for x:

x^2+x=0

We can factor out the common x to get:

x(x + 1) = 0

which tells us by the Zero Product Property that either

x = 0 and/or x + 1 = 0 and x = -1

We are expecting 2 solutions for x since this is a second degree polynomial.  We will sub both -1 and 0 into y = x + 7 to solve for the corresponding values of y

y = 0 + 7 so

y = 7 and the coordinate is (0, 7)

y = -1 + 7 so

y = 6 and the coordinate is (-1, 6)

Write an equation of the line that passes through a pair of points: -5, -2 3, -1
irinina [24]

Answer: option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where c = intercept

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis represent

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

The line passes through (- 5, - 2) and (3, - 1),

y2 = - 1

y1 = - 2

x2 = 3

x1 = - 5

Slope,m = (- 1 - - 2)/(3 - - 5) = 1/8

To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 3, y = - 1 and

m = 1/8 into y = mx + c. It becomes

- 1 = 1/8 × 3 + c

- 1 = 3/8 + c

c = - 1 - 3/8 = - 11/8

The equation becomes

y = x/8 - 11/8

How would you go about finding the solution to this system of three equations in three variables? Be specific. For example, you
kupik [55]
I:2x – y + z = 7
II:x + 2y – 5z = -1
III:x – y = 6

you can first use III and substitute x or y to eliminate it in I and II (in this case x):
III: x=6+y
-> substitute x in I and II:
I': 2*(6+y)-y+z=7
12+2y-y+z=7
y+z=-5

II':(6+y)+2y-5z=-1
3y+6-5z=-1
3y-5z=-7

then you can subtract II' from 3*I' to eliminate y:
3*I'=3y+3z=-15

3*I'-II':
3y+3z-(3y-5z)=-15-(-7)
8z=-8
z=-1

insert z in II' to calculate y:
3y-5z=-7
3y+5=-7
3y=-12
y=-4

insert y into III to calculate x:
x-(-4)=6
x+4=6
x=2

so the solution is
x=2
y=-4
z=-1
