Solve the system of equations. x+y=4 y=x^2 - 8x + 16 a) {(-3,7).(-4, 8)} b) [(4,0)} c) {(3,1),(4,0) d) {(3,7). (4.0)} e) none

Marysya12 [62]

Answer: The required solution of the given system is

(x, y) = (3, 1) and (4, 0).

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following system of equations :

$x+y=4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\y=x^2-8x+16~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)$

From equation (i), we have

$x+y=4\\\\\Rightarrow y=4-x~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iii)$

Substituting the value of y from equation (iii) in equation (ii), we get

$y=x^2-8x+16\\\\\Rightarrow 4-x=x^2-8x+16\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-8x+16-4+x=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-7x+12=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-4x-3x+12=0\\\\\Rightarrow x(x-4)-3(x-4)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (x-3)(x-4)=0\\\\\Rightarrow x-3=0,~~~~~~~x-4=0\\\\\Rightarrow x=3,~4.$

When, x = 3, then from (iii), we get

$y=4-3=1.$

And, when x = 4, then from (iii), we get

$y=4-4=0.$

Thus, the required solution of the given system is

(x, y) = (3, 1) and (4, 0).

Fabio is driving west away from Albany and towards buffalo along interstate 90 at a constant rate of speed of 62 miles per hour.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The distance between Albany and Buffalo along the I90 is 288.8 mi.

The speed of Fabio is 62 mph.

After 1.5 hours, he is 221 miles from Albany.

Things we can calculate here:

Using the relation:

Distance = time*speed.

We can calculate the number of miles that he moved in that 1.5 hours.

D = 62mph*1.5h = 93mi.

If after 1.5 hours, he was 221 miles Albany, then before that he was 93 miles closer to Albany.

His initial position was:

221 - 93 = 128 miles away from Albany.

Now we also can calculate the time left to arrive at Buffalo.

We know that the distance between Albany and Buffalo is 288.8 mi

And he is 221 mi away from Albany.

Then the distance left to Buffalo is:

288.8mi - 221mi = 67.8mi

And the time left will be:

Distance/speed = time

67.8mi/62mph = 1.1 hours.

He needs to drive for another 1.1 hours to get to Buffalo.

Solve 12x<br>x + 16 - 1 = 0<br>

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

xx=-0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

not sure if this is right because the 12xx is kind of strange

12xx+16-1=0
12xx+15=0
12xx=-15
12/12xx=12/-15
xx=-.8
