Answer:
x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 2(bx - 5) = 16 ← substitute b = 3
- 2(3x - 5) = 16 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
3x - 5 = - 8 ( add 5 to both sides )
3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = - 1
if it is solution point (4, –2) must satisfy both equations
(1) –3x – 2y = –8-->-3*4-2*(-2)=-8
-12+4=-8 then-->-8=-8 ok
(2) y = 2x – 5
-2=2*4-5=3---------->-2 is not 3
the point (4, –2) is not solution of the system of equations
all you will have to do is add the top number . you should D
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic function in standard form is
y = ax² + bx + c (a ≠ 0 )
Given
y = - 3x² + 6x + 17 ← compare coefficients with standard form, then
a = - 3, b = 6, c = 17
Given the quadratic in standard form the the equation of the axis of symmetry is
x = - 
= - 
= 1
Equation of axis of symmetry is x = 1
(y-4)(y^2+4y+16)
y^3+4y^2+16y-4y^2-16y-64=y^3+4y^2+ay-4y^2-ay-64
Comparing the coefficients: a=16
Answer: The value of a in the polynomial is 16
