Solve for 
:
Now if 
, we have 
and
On the other hand, if 
, then 
and
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is just a perfect square
8x-6y=-96 add to this -4 times the second equation...
-8x-12y=-48
___________
-18y=-144
y=8, this makes 8x-6y=-96 become:
8x-48=-96
8x=-48
x=-6
so the solution to the system of equations is the point:
(-6,8)
Answer:
4.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
We can have two cases.
A quadratic function where the leading coefficient is larger than zero, in this case the arms of the graph will open up, and it will continue forever, so the maximum in this case is infinite.
A quadratic function where the leading coefficient is negative. In this case the arms of the graph will open down, then the maximum of the quadratic function coincides with the vertex of the function.
Where for a generic function:
y(x) = a*x^2 + b*x + c
The vertex is at:
x = -a/2b
and the maximum value is:
y(-a/2b)
