Answer:

x = 36; y = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

x+6 = y

7x = 6y

7x = 6(x+6)

7x = 6x+36

-6x -6x

x = 36

_________

y = 36+6

y = 42

_________

. If α and β are the roots of

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$18x^2+85x+18 = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Given Equation is </em></u>

=> $2x^2+7x-9=0$

Comparing it with $ax^2+bx+c = 0$ , we get

=> a = 2, b = 7 and c = -9

So,

Sum of roots = α+β = $-\frac{b}{a}$

α+β = -7/2

Product of roots = αβ = c/a

αβ = -9/2

<em>Now, Finding the equation whose roots are:</em>

α/β ,β/α

Sum of Roots = $\frac{\alpha }{\beta } + \frac{\beta }{\alpha }$

Sum of Roots = $\frac{\alpha^2+\beta^2 }{\alpha \beta }$

Sum of Roots = $\frac{(\alpha+\beta )^2-2\alpha\beta }{\alpha\beta }$

Sum of roots = $(\frac{-7}{2} )^2-2(\frac{-9}{2} ) / \frac{-9}{2}$

Sum of roots = $\frac{49}{4} + 9 /\frac{-9}{2}$

Sum of Roots = $\frac{49+36}{4} / \frac{-9}{2}$

Sum of roots = $\frac{85}{4} * \frac{2}{-9}$

Sum of roots = S = $-\frac{85}{18}$

Product of Roots = $\frac{\alpha }{\beta } \frac{\beta }{\alpha }$

Product of Roots = P = 1

<u><em>The Quadratic Equation is:</em></u>

=> $x^2-Sx+P = 0$

=> $x^2 - (-\frac{85}{18} )x+1 = 0$

=> $x^2 + \frac{85}{18}x + 1 = 0$

=> $18x^2+85x+18 = 0$

This is the required quadratic equation.

show me how to work this problem, point A(7,9)is dilated from the origin by scale factor r was= 6. what are the coordinates of p

frutty [35]

If the point is dilated from the origin by a scale factor of 6

Then the coordinates of point A becomes

A( 6x7 , 6x9)

$A_{0,6}(7,9)=(42,\text{ 54)}$

Sarah is paid biweekly. Her annual salary is $33,000.

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

$1269.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sarah is paid biweekly (every 2 weeks), and there are 52 weeks in a year...

$52$ ÷ $2=26$

Sarah is being paid 26 weeks out of the year.

Divide 33,000 by 26 (I only list 4 places after the decimal):

$33000$ ÷ $26=1269.2307$

Round 1269.2307 to the nearest cent (hundredth):

$1269.23$
