Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

\dfrac{1}{4 }(8x -16) + 2x = \dfrac{1}{2}(10x -8)-x

Open brackets

2x - 4+ 2x = 5x - 4 - x

- 4 = 4x-4

4x = 0

x = 0/4

x = 0

Hence, x is not - 10

If the graphs of the equations in a system of linear equations coincide with each other, what does that tell you about the solut
salantis [7]
 If by "coincide", in other words this is also known as intersect, it means that the solution to the system is that intersection point. For instance, if the intersection point of the 2 lines is (5,7) on the graph, it means that in both equations, x = 5 and y = 7. If you mean that the 2 equations result in the same line, it means that the 2 equations were really equal, but that one could be basic to be identical with the other. For example, if you have 2x + 2y = 8 and 4x + 4y = 16, they will give you the same line, and you can see that if you divide that second equation by 2 all the way crossways, it merely shows the first equation.

A ceiling light has a cross-section in the shape of a parabola. The parabola is 24 cm wide and 9 cm deep. The lightbulb is locat
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

  4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola with its vertex at the origin can be written as ...

  y = 1/(4p)x^2

The problem statement tells us that one point on the parabola is (x, y) = (12, 9). We can put these values into the equation and solve for p, the distance from the focus to the vertex.

  9 = 1/(4p)(12^2)

  9×4/144 = 1/p = 1/4 . . . . . . . . multiply by the inverse of the coefficient of 1/p

Then p = 4, and the bulb is 4 cm from the vertex.
