Answer: The expression for a and y are not clear, however whatever expressions you are give, you can use the same approach as solved in the attached file.
At which x value is the tangent to this curve horizontal = 176/3
What is the total area inside the loop = 546.13 square unit
Step-by-step explanation:
The steps and appropriate derivation is as shown in the attachment.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can make 2 equations as follows:
2x = y + 16 and x + 2y = 18
x + 2y = 18 is the same as x = 18 - 2y. Hence, 2(18 - 2y) = 2x = y + 16.
2(18 - 2y) = y + 16
36 - 4y = y + 16
5y = 20
y = 4.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can expand the brackets:
(given)

(combine like-terms)
