Y=-x^2+2x+10 y=x+2 Substitution Please show your work Need ASAP

erik [133]

Answer:

The solutions of the system of equations are the points

$(\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2})$

$(\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2})$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=-x^{2} +2x+10$ ----> equation A

$y=x+2$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A

$x+2=-x^{2} +2x+10$

solve for x

$-x^{2} +2x+10-x-2=0$

$-x^{2} +x+8=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-x^{2} +x+8=0$

so

$a=-1\\b=1\\c=8$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4(-1)(8)}} {2(-1)}$

$x=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{33}} {-2}$

$x=\frac{-1+\sqrt{33}} {-2}$ -----> $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$x=\frac{-1-\sqrt{33}} {-2}$ -----> $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

Find the values of y

For $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$y=x+2$

$y=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}+2$ ----> $y=\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

For $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$y=x+2$

$y=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}+2$ ----> $y=\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

therefore

The solutions of the system of equations are the points

$(\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2})$

$(\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2})$

Carrie place is a 10 foot ladder against the wall if the ladder makes an angle of 65° with the level ground how far up the wall

natita [175]

Answer:

9......

Step-by-step explanation:

A right-angled triangle in the image below will be formed.

Now, we will make use of the trigonometric rule......

But before that, how do know the perfect rule to apply so as to solve the problem?

#. The side facing the angle 65 deg. is called the Opposite side

#. The side facing the angle 90 deg. is called the Hypotenuse

#. While the last side is called the Adjacent

Now, Looking at our question, we were given the Hypotenuse and asked to look for the Opposite side....This is where we apply the trigonometric rule

Sine(θ)=Opposite/Hypotenuse

Therefore,

Sine 64 = Opposite/10

Opposite = 10 x sine64

Opposite = 10 x 0.9

Opposite = 9cm

Simplify the expressions. i^23

masha68 [24]

Answer:

-i

Step-by-step explanation:

i^0=1

i^1=i

i^2=-1

i^3=-i

i^4=1

This repeats so we want to see how many 4 factors of i there is in i^(23) which is 5 with a remainder of 3.

So i^(23)=i^3=-i.

i^(23)=i^(5*4+3)=(i^4)^5 * (i^3)=(1)^5 * (-i)=1(-i)=-i.

Set up an algebraic equation and then solve.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

Width: 6

Length: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

So the area of a rectangle can be defined as: $A=wl$ where w=width and l=length.

In this case we don't know what the length is, so let's just say the length is the variable l, and since the width is 14 units less than the length, we can express it as (l-14). this gives us the equation: $A=l(l-14)=l^2-14l$ . We can solve for l, since we're given the area which is 120. So let's set the equation equal to that:
