Answer:

(x-8)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because x^2-6x-16 has two common factors which are -8+2=the coefficient 6 in 6x and -8·2 which equals -16

This results in (x-8)(x+2)

A bridge in the shape of an arch connects two cities separated by a river. The two ends of the bridge are located at (–7, –13) a

sdas [7]

Answer:

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of an arch corresponds to a parabola.

the general equation for a parabola is:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

we're given three coordinates: (-7,-13),(7,-13) and (0,0)

so we can plug these values in the general equation to make 3 separate equations:

(x,y) = (-7,-13)

$-13=a(-7)^2+b(-7)+c$

$49a-7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (7,-13)

$-13=a(7)^2+b(7)+c$

$49a+7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (0,0)

$0=a(0)^2+b(7)+c$

$c=0$

so we have three equations. and we can solve them simultaneously to find the values of a,b, and c.

we've already found c = 0, let's use substitute it to other equations.

$49a-7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a-7b=-13$

$49a+7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a+7b=-13$

we can solve these two equation using the elimination method, by simply adding the two equations

$\quad\quad49a-7b=-13\\+\quad49a+7b=-13$

------------------------------

$\quad\quad 98a=-26$

$\quad\quad a=-\dfrac{13}{49}$

Now we can plug this value of a in any of the two equations.

$49a-7b=-13$

$49\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)-7b=-13$

$-13-7b=-13$

$-7b=0$

$b=0$

We have the values of a,b, and c. We can plug them in the general equation to find the equation of the arch.

$y=\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)x^2+0x+0$

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

$49y=-13x^2$

This our equation of the arch!

Find the area of quadrilateral ABCD. [Hint: the diagonal divides the quadrilateral into two triangles.]

Rasek [7]

The area of the quadrilateral is 16.80 square units if the diagonal divides the quadrilateral into two triangles.

<h3>What is quadrilateral?</h3>

It is defined as the four-sided polygon in geometry having four edges and four corners. It has one pair of opposite congruent angles and the diagonals of a kite are perpendicular.

We have a quadrilateral shown in the picture.

The diagonal divides the quadrilateral into two triangles

The area of the quadrilateral = area of the triangle ADC + area of the

triangle ADB

= (1/2)3.42×4.39 + (1/2)5.44×3.42

= 7.5069 + 9.3024

= 16.80 square units

Thus, the area of the quadrilateral is 16.80 square units if the diagonal divides the quadrilateral into two triangles.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

y=1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the graph, all you need is the first point.

Y is at 4 and X is at 2. We can divide y/x to get 4/2=1/2x

Malik collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps. He has 34 more domestic stamps than foreign stamps. Let x represent th

Effectus [21]

Answer:

y = 89 x = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

since they're both in standard form, its easier to do the process of elimination

x - y = 34

-x -y -212

------------------

-2y = -178

y = 89

now plug in y to any one of those two equations

x - y = 34

x - 89 = 34

x = 123

to check:

x + y = 212

123 + 89 = 212

212 = 212
