<span>Answer:
Its too long to write here, so I will just state what I did.
I let P=(2ap,ap^2) and Q=(2aq,aq^2)
But x-coordinates of P and Q differ by (2a)
So P=(2ap,ap^2) BUT Q=(2ap - 2a, aq^2)
So Q=(2a(p-1), aq^2)
which means, 2aq = 2a(p-1)
therefore, q=p-1
then I subbed that value of q in aq^2
so Q=(2a(p-1), a(p-1)^2)
and P=(2ap,ap^2)
Using these two values, I found the midpoint which was:
M=( a(2p-1), [a(2p^2 - 2p + 1)]/2 )
then x = a(2p-1)
rearranging to make p the subject
p= (x+a)/2a</span>
You want to eliminate one of the terms (x or y) in one of the equations so you can solve for the other variable. You have to multiply by the opposite number of the coefficient to be able to eliminate the term in the other equation. If the x coefficient is 2, then you have to multiply the entire other equation by -2. If the y coefficient is -5, then you have to multiply the entire other equation by 5.

-4x + 9y= 9
x - 3y= -6
STEP 1:
multiply the bottom equation by 4
4(x- 3y)= 4(-6)
4x - 12y= -24
STEP 2:
add the top equation and the equation from step 2
-4x + 9y= 9
4x - 12y= -24
the x term cancels out
-3y= 15
divide both sides by -3
y= -5
STEP 2:
substitute the y value in either original equation to solve for x
x - 3y= -6
x - 3(-5)= -6
x + 15= -6
subtract 15 from both sides
x= -21
ANSWER: x= -21; y= -5

-7x + y= -19
-2x + 3y= -19
STEP 1:
multiply the top equation by -3 to eliminate the y term and to solve for x
-3(-7x + y)= -3(-19)
21x - 3y= 57
STEP 2:
add the bottom equation and the equation from step 2 to solve for x
-2x + 3y= -19
21x - 3y= 57
the y term cancels out
19x= 38
divide both sides by 19
x= 2
STEP 3:
substitute the x value in step 2 to solve for y; you can use either original equation
-7x + y= -19
-7(2) + y= -19
-14 + y= -19
add 14 to both sides
y= -5
ANSWER: x= 2; y=-5
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Buy the batteries and stereo online:
4.99*2= $9.98 +$90 = $99.98
6.99-5.00 = $1.99
99.98+1.99=$101.97
3Cds in store
7.97*3= $23.85
5% tax = 1.19
10% off = 2.39
$23.85 - $1.19= $22.66
22.66 + 101.97= $124.63
All in store:
12+100+23.85= 135.85 - 6.45 = $129.40
All online:
9.98 + 90 + 26.85= 126.85 +$1.99 = 128.84

Answer:
The first option is the correct one, the area of the shaded portion of the circle is
[/tex](5 \pi -11.6)ft^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us first consider the triangle + the shadow.
The full area of the circle is the radius squared times pi, so
A=
Since 
, the area of the triangle + the shaded area is one fifth of the area of the whole circle, thus
If we want to know the area of the shaded part of the circle, we must subtract the area of the triangle from 
.
The area of the triangle is given by
Thus the area of the shaded portion of the circle is
