Answer:

5 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Make equations:

x+y = 16

3x-4 = y

Substitute 3x-4 as y in x+y = 16

You get x + 3x - 4 = 16

Simplify into 4x - 4 = 16

Add 4 on both sides

you get 4x = 20

Divide each side by 4,

You get x = 5. Plug 5 back into x+y = 16

Subtract 5 from both sides, and you get y = 11

In the x-y plane, what is the y- intercept of the graph of the equation y=6 (x-1/2) (x+3)
Ivenika [448]

The y-intercept on the x-y plane is (0, -9).

<h3 /><h3>How to get the y-intercept?</h3>

To get the y-intercept we just need to evaluate in x = 0.

Here we have:

y = 6*(x - 1/2)*(x + 3)

Evaluating the given equation in x = 0 we get:

y = 6*(0 - 1/2)*(0 + 3) = -9

Then the y-intercept on the x-y plane is (0, -9).

F(X)= 2x^2 +1. Find and simplify af(X)+b and f(ax+b)
kati45 [8]
Hello,

f(x)=2x²+1
f(ax+b)=2(ax+b)²+1=2(a²x²+2abx+b²)+1=2a²x²+4abx+2b²+1

af(x)+b=a(2x²+1)+b=2ax²+a+b

And f(ax+b)≠af(x)+b not linear
