Answer:
x = ± 4
y = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 0.5x² - 10 ------------------------(I)
y = -x² + 14 ------------------------(II)
Substitute the y value in equation (II)
0.5x² - 10 = -x² + 14 {Add x² to both sides}
0.5x² + x² -10 = 14 {combine like terms}
1.5x² - 10 = 14 {Add 10 to both sides}
1.5x² = 14 + 10
1.5x² = 24 {Divide both sides by 1.5}
1.5x²/1.5 = 24/1.5
x² = 16
x = ±4
Substitute x = 4 in (I)
y = 0.5 * 4² - 10
= 0.5*16 - 10
= 8- 10
y = -2
Substitute x = -4 in (I)
y = 0.5 * (-4)² - 10
= 0.5*16 - 10
= 8- 10
y = -2
Answer:
Her friend got the better deal.
Step-by-step explanation:
For Jillians equation look at
$22.56/4 = $6.39 per CD
For her friends equation look at
$18.45/3 = $6.15 per CD
Jillian's friend got the better deal because she paid less per CD as shown in the equations above.
Solving for x
x=3/8m-5/4,m
Solving for m

Answer:
(2, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, the equations are supposed to be ...
The solution for x can be found by subtracting the second equation from the first:
(4x +y) -(3x +y) = (5) -(3)
x = 2 . . . . . . . matches the second answer choice
Y can be found from either equation:
y = 5 - 4x . . . . . subtract 4x from the first equation
y = 5 -4(2) = -3
The solution is (x, y) = (2, -3).
