Answer:

x = 2 and y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are:

2x - 3y = 13 ...(1)

x + 2y = -4 ...(2)

Multiply equation (2) by 2.

2x + 4y = -8 ...(3)

Subtract equation (3) from (1).

2x - 3y-(2x + 4y) = 13-(-8)

2x-3y-2x-4y = 13+8

-7y = 21

y = -3

Put the value of y in equation (2).

x + 2(-3) = -4

x-6=-4

x = 6-4

x = 2

So, the solution of the given equations are x = 2 and y = -3.

Describe the graph of the function f(x) = x3 − 11x2 + 36x − 36. Include the y-intercept, x-intercepts, and the shape of the grap
kap26 [50]
1) y-intercept => x = 0, => y = f(0) = 0 - 0 + 0 - 36 = -36

2) x-intercept => y = 0 => factor the function (start by dividing by x -2)

f(x) = (x-2)(x-3)(x-6) =0 => x =2, x = 3, x = 6 (these are the x-intercepts)

3) critical points:

between x = 2 and x = 3, there is a local maximum

between x =3 and x = 6 there is a local minimum

3) Shape.

The function comes growing from - infinity.

In the third quadrant the function is negative (it does not pass throuhg the second quadrant)

It enters to the fourth quadrant intercepting the y-axis at y = -36. It continues growing and intercepts the x-axis at x = 2.

 It continues increasing until a maximum local positive value, starts to decrease, intercepts the x-axis at x = 3, continues decreasing, becomes negative, gets a local minimum in the fourth quadrant, starts to increase, intercepts the x-axis at x = 6, becomes positive, and continues growing.
