Answer:

b=9,a=12

Step-by-step explanation:

I solved by substitution:

b = 3/4a ---> plug this into the other equation

a + b = 21 is now a + 3/4a = 21

Reduce: 7/4a = 21

a = 12

Now solve for b:

b=3/4a is now b=3/4(12)

b=9

a 28 inch piece of steel is cut into three pieces so that the second piece is twice as long as the first piece, and the third pi

klasskru [66]

Where x is the length of the first piece
$x + 2x + 6x + 1 = 28 \\ \\ 9x = 27 \\ \\ x = 3$
so the first piece is 3 inches, the second is 6 inches and the third is 19 inches

Write the expression as a square of a monomial. a 81x^4

poizon [28]

Answer:

(9x²)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 81x⁴, to write the expression as a square of a monomial, first we will assign a variable to the expression.

y = 81x⁴

Then we take the square root of both sides of the expression

√y = √81x⁴

y^½ = √81 × √x⁴

y^½ = 9x²

Squaring both sides of the resulting equation to get y back

(y^½)² = (9x²)²

y = (9x²)²

The expression as a square of a monomial is (9x²)²

Quadratics need help making parabola

timama [110]

Answer:

The equation of the parabola is $y = \frac{1}{3}\cdot x^{2}-\frac{4}{3}\cdot x -4$ , whose real vertex is $(x,y) = (2, -5.333)$ , not $(x,y) = (2, -5)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

A parabola is a second order polynomial. By Fundamental Theorem of Algebra we know that a second order polynomial can be formed when three distinct points are known. From statement we have the following information:

$(x_{1}, y_{1}) = (-2, 0)$ , $(x_{2}, y_{2}) = (6, 0)$ , $(x_{3}, y_{3}) = (0, -4)$

From definition of second order polynomial and the three points described above, we have the following system of linear equations:

$4\cdot a -2\cdot b + c = 0$ (1)

$36\cdot a + 6\cdot b + c = 0$ (2)

$c = -4$ (3)

The solution of this system is: $a = \frac{1}{3}$ , $b = - \frac{4}{3}$ , $c = -4$ . Hence, the equation of the parabola is $y = \frac{1}{3}\cdot x^{2}-\frac{4}{3}\cdot x -4$ . Lastly, we must check if $(x,y) = (2, -5)$ belongs to the function. If we know that $x = 2$ , then the value of $y$ is:

$y = \frac{1}{3}\cdot (2)^{2}-\frac{4}{3}\cdot (2) - 4$

$y = -5.333$

$(x,y) = (2, -5)$ does not belong to the function, the real point is $(x,y) = (2, -5.333)$ .
