Just like 2 squared = 4, the square root of 2 multiplied by itself will result in a product of 2. Squaring a number always means multiplying that number by the same number.

Solve using substitution. <br> 7x-4y=-12<br> 9x-4y=-20
MrRissso [65]

Answer:y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Solve for xx in 7x-4y=-127x−4y=−12.

x=\frac{4(y-3)}{7}

x=

7

4(y−3)

​

2 Substitute x=\frac{4(y-3)}{7}x=

7

4(y−3)

​

 into 9x-4y=-209x−4y=−20.

\frac{36(y-3)}{7}-4y=-20

7

36(y−3)

​

−4y=−20

3 Solve for yy in \frac{36(y-3)}{7}-4y=-20

7

36(y−3)

​

−4y=−20.

y=-4

y=−4

4 Substitute y=-4y=−4 into x=\frac{4(y-3)}{7}x=

7

4(y−3)

​

.

x=-4

x=−4

5 Therefore,

\begin{aligned}&x=-4\\&y=-4\end{aligned}

​

 

x=−4

y=−4

The English Alphabet has 20 letters more than one-fourth the number of letters in the Greek Alphabet. The English Alphabet has 2
KengaRu [80]

we are given that the English Aplhabet has 26 letters. we let g represent the number of letters in the Greek alphabet. From the statement given, English alphabet which is 26 = 20 + 1/4 *g. The expression which is similar to this is in option A. 1/4g + 20 = 26.

Write the equation of a parabola whose directrix is y=9.75 and has a focus at (8, 0.25).
lana [24]

Answer:

y = (-1/19)(x - 8)² + 1521/76

Step-by-step explanation:

A parabola moves in such a way that it's distance from it's focus and directrix are always equal.

Now, we are given that directrix is y = 9.75 and focus is at (8, 0.25). Focus can be rewritten as (8, ¼) and directrix can be rewritten as y = 39/4

If we consider a point with the coordinates (x, y), it means the distance from this point to the focus is;

√((x - 8)² + (y - ¼)²)

Distance from that point to the directrix is; (y - 39/4)

Thus;

√((x - 8)² + (y - ¼)²) = (y - 39/4)

Taking the square of both sides gives;

((x - 8)² + (y - ¼)²) = (y - 39/4)²

(x - 8)² + y² - ½y + 1/16 = y² - (39/2)y + (39/4)²

Simplifying this gives;

(x - 8)² - (39/4)² = (½ - 39/2)y

(x - 8)² - 1521/4 = -19y

(x - 8)² - 1521/4 = -19y

Divide both sides by -19 to get;

y = (-1/19)(x - 8)² + 1521/76
