Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so I think I know what the equations are, but I might have misinterpreted them because of the syntax- I think when you ask a question you can use the symbols tool to input it in a more clear way, otherwise you can use parentheses and such.
Problem 1:
(x²)/4 +y²= 1
y= x+1
*substitute for y*
Now we have a one-variable equation we can solve-
x²/4 + (x+1)² = 1
x²/4 + (x+1)(x+1)= 1
x²/4 + x²+2x+1= 1
*subtract 1 from both sides to set equal to 0*
x²/4 +x^2+2x=0
x²/4 can also be 1/4 * x²
1/4 * x² +1*x² +2x = 0
*combine like terms*
5/4 * x^2+2x+ 0 =0
now, you can use the quadratic equation to solve for x
a= 5/4
b= 2
c=0
the syntax on this will be rough, but I'll do my best...
x= (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)
x= (-2 ±√(2²-4*(5/4)*(0))/(2*(5/4))
x= (-2 ±√(4-0))/(2.5)
x= (-2±2)/2.5
x will have 2 answers because of ±
x= 0 or x= 1.6
now plug that back into one of the equations and solve.
y= 0+1 = 1
y= 1.6+1= 2.6
Hopefully this explanation was enough to help you solve problem 2.
Problem 2:
x² + y² -16y +39= 0
y²- x² -9= 0
It’s actually all except bottom left
Answer:
13. 108 inches
14. not similar (sides have different ratios)
15. 68
Step-by-step explanation:
13. You have two relationships between length and width:
2L + 2W = 336 . . . . . the perimeter is 336 inches
L/W = 9/5 . . . . . . . . . .the ratio of length to width is 9/5
Multiplying the second equation by 5/9W, we get
5/9L = W
Now we can substitute that into the first equation to get ...
2L +2(5/9L) = 336
Multiplying by 9 gives us ...
18L +10L = 3024
And dividing by 28 gives ...
3024/28 = L = 108 . . . . inches
___
14. Shortest to longest, the ratios of sides are 6 : 8 : 9 and 2 : 4 : 5. There is no value that will multiply the first ratio to give the second ratio. For example, multiplying by 1/3 gives ...
2 : 2 2/3 : 3 . . . . <u>not</u> 2 : 4 : 5
Similar triangles have the same side ratios. These do not, so they are not similar triangles.

15. MP is a midsegment of triangle JKL and parallel to base JL. A midsegment is half the length of the parallel base. Then JL is twice as long as MP. JL is 68 units long.
