Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
→ First find the value of x and y
x + y = 5
x - y = 4
→ Add the equations to cancel out the y's
2x = 9
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find the value of x
x = 4.5
→ Substitute x = 4.5 back into x - y = 4 to find the value of y
4.5 - y = 4
→ Minus 4.5 from both sides to isolate -y
-y = -0.5
→ Multiply everything by -1
y = 0.5
→ Substitute x = 4.5 and y = 0.5 into x² - y²
4.5² - 0.5² = 20.25 - 0.25 = 20
B . Approaches -4
I’m pretty sure it’s -4
Let's use the slope intercept form of a line which is:
y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept.
Mathematically m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and the y-intercept is just the value of y when x is equal to zero, where the line intercepts the y axis...
First you want to find the slope by finding two clearly identifiable points on the graph...I'll pick (4,4) and (0,1), now we can calculate the slope or "m"...
m=(4-1)/(4-0)=3/4 so now we can say our line is:
y=0.75x+b, using point (4,4) we can now solve for b.
4=0.75(4)+b
4=3+b
b=1 so the line is"
y=0.75x+1
