Answer:

The end-behavior of the given function is: "Both ends upward".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial function is: $f(x)=2x^4-3x^2+2x$

For determining the end-behavior of a polynomial function, first we need to identify the degree and leading coefficient.

Degree means the highest exponent to the variable in the function. So, here degree is 4.

Leading coefficient is the coefficient of the first term in the function. So, here the leading coefficient is 2.

Now the rule is: If the degree of the polynomial function is even and the leading coefficient is positive, then both ends of the graph of function will be in upward direction.

So, the end-behavior of the given function is: "Both ends upward".

11) -x + y = -1 ; 2x - y = 0
y = -1 + x ; 2x - (-1+x) = 0 ⇒ 2x + 1 - x = 0 ⇒x = -1
y = -1 + (-1) ⇒ y = -2

12) -2x + y = -20 ; 2x + y = 48
y = -20 + 2x ; 2x + (-20 + 2x) = 48 ⇒ 2x -20 + 2x = 48 ⇒ 4x = 48 + 20
4x = 68 ⇒ x = 68/4 ⇒ x = 17
y = -20 + 2(17) ⇒ y = -20 + 34 ⇒ y = 14

13) 3x -y = -2 ; -2x + y = 3
y = 3 + 2x ; 3x - (3 + 2x) = -2 ⇒ 3x - 3 - 2x = -2 ⇒ x = -2 + 3 ⇒ x = 1
y = 3 + 2(1) ⇒ y = 3 + 2 ⇒ y = 5

14) x - y = 4 ; x - 2y = 10
x = 4 + y ; (4 + y) - 2y = 10 ⇒ 4 + y - 2y = 10 ⇒ 4 - y = 10
⇒ -y = 10 - 4 ⇒ -y = 6 ⇒ y = -6
x = 4 + (-6) ⇒ x = 4 - 6 ⇒ x = -2

15) x + 2y = 5 ; 3x + 2y = 17
x = 5 - 2y ; 3(5-2y) + 2y = 17 ⇒ 15 - 6y + 2y = 17 ⇒ -4y = 17 - 15
⇒ -4y = 2 ⇒ y = -2/4 ⇒ y = -1/2
x = 5 - 2(-1/2) ⇒ x = 5 + 2/2 ⇒ x = 5 + 1 ⇒ x = 6

How do you solve the system: y+1=2x 5y+5=10x

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

choose "infinitely more solutions"

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this system by substitution method

y+1=2x

- 1 = - 1

y = 2x -1 <-- sbstitute this in the next equation

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

5y+5 = 10x

5(2x -1) + 5 = 10x

10x -5 + 5 = 10x

10x + 0= 10x

- 10x = -10x

0 = 0 <-- infinitely more solutions

Length of train : 100
length of bridge : 400
distance covered by the train to cross the bridge : (100 + 400) = 500

speed = distance / time
speed = 500/30
speed = 16.67 meters per second <===
