Solve using the substitution method

Mathematics

You are told x = 8y -4

Replace x in the second equation with 8y-4:

8y-4 + 8y = 6

Combine like terms:

16y-4 = 6

Add 4 to both sides:

16y = 10

Divide both sides by 16:

Y = 10/16

Simplify:

Y = 5/8

Now replace y with 5/8 do find x:

X = 8(5/8) -4 = 5-4 = 1

X = 1, y = 5/8

(1,5/8)

Find the vertex of the given quadratic function.
AleksandrR [38]

Answer: Choice B. The vertex is (6,-4)

=======================================================

Work Shown:

Step 1 is to expand out (x-8)(x-4) using the FOIL rule or the box method or the distribution rule

(x-8)(x-4) = x(x-4)-8(x-4)

(x-8)(x-4) = x*x+x*(-4)-8*x-8*(-4)

(x-8)(x-4) = x^2-4x-8x+32

(x-8)(x-4) = x^2-12x+32

So (x-8)(x-4) turns into x^2-12x+32

x^2-12x+32 is the same as 1x^2+(-12x)+32 which is in the form ax^2+bx+c. We see that a = 1, b = -12, c = 32

-----------------

Use the values of a & b to find the value of h, which is the x coordinate of the vertex

h = -b/(2*a)

h = -(-12)/(2*1)

h = 12/2

h = 6

Then this is plugged back into the original function to find the y coordinate of the vertex. We can use either (x-8)(x-4) or x^2-12x+32 since they are equivalent expressions

k = y coordinate of vertex

k = f(h) = f(6) since h = 6

f(x) = (x-8)(x-4)

f(6) = (6-8)(6-4)

f(6) = (-2)(2)

f(6) = -4

note that

f(x) = x^2-12x+32

f(6) = (6)^2-12(6)+32

f(6) = 36-72+32

f(6) = -36+32

f(6) = -4

So we get the same result using either expression

So k = f(h) = f(6) = -4

Since h = 6 and k = -4, the vertex is (h,k) = (6,-4). So that's why the answer is choice B.

In the polynomial below, what number should replace the question mark to produce a difference of squares? X^2 + ?x -49 A. 0 B. 1
Mrac [35]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference of squares formula is a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b). We want this polynomial to be in the form a² - b². We notice that x² and 49 are perfect squares already which means that we don't need the x term. To get rid of it, its coefficient must be 0 because 0 times anything is 0, thus the x term will be removed and we'll be left with x² - 49 which is a difference of squares.

Marsha pays $25 each month for a car wash membership. Which of the following represents the total amount subtracted from her acc
Kipish [7]

The correct amount taken from the account for car wash membership fee is shown below:

−4|25| = −$100

What is the amount subtracted from the account on the account balance?

The amount subtracted has a negative impact on the account balance because it reduces the account balance as it is an expense or debit transaction unlike a credit that increases the balance

$25 is spent every month, which means -$25 taken from the account every month

total amount deducted for 4 months=4*-$25

total amount deducted for 4 months=-$100

The correct option which indicates -$100 is −4|25| = −$100
