Answer:

For a better understanding of the solution provided here, please find the diagram attached.

In the diagram, ABCD is the room.

AC is the diagonal whose length is 18.79 inches.

The length of wall AB is 17 inches.

From the given information, we have to determine the length of the BC, which is depicted a , because for the room to be a square, the length of the wall AB must be equal to the length of the wall BC.

Thus, inches

and hence, the given room is not a square.

Fit a quadratic function to these three points:<br> (-2,8), (0, -4), and (4, 68)<br> Respuesta
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

f(x) = 4x^2 + 2x - 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the quadratic function be y = f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c.

For the point (-2, 8)  ( x = -2 when y = 8) we have:

a(-2)^2 + (-2)b + c = 8

4a - 2b + c = 8      For (0, -4) we have:

0 + 0 + c = -4   so c = -4.    For (4, 68) we have:

16a + 4b + c = 68  

So we have 2 systems of equations in a and b ( plugging in c = -4):

4a - 2b - 4 = 8

16a + 4b - 4 = 68

4a - 2b = 12

16a + 4b = 72    Multiplying 4a - 2b = 12 by 2 we get:

8a - 4b = 24  

Adding the last 2 equations:

24a = 96

a = 4

Now plugging a = 4 and c = -4 in the first equation:

4(4) - 2b - 4 = 8

-2b = 8 - 16 + 4 = -4

b = 2.

Simultaneously x-2y=0 40-y=14​
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

x = 52, y = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 2y = 0

40 - y = 14​

(40 - 40) - y = 14​ - 40

- y = -26

y = 26

x - 2(26) = 0

x - 52 = 0

x (- 52 + 52) = 0 + 52

x = 52
