1 Let's solve for x.
y = 5x -7x
Step 1: Flip the equation.
-2x = y
Step 2: Divide both sides by -2
-2x/-2 = y/-2
X= -1/2 y
Answer
X= -1/2 y
Area of the parabolic region = Integral of [a^2 - x^2 ]dx | from - a to a =
(a^2)x - (x^3)/3 | from - a to a = (a^2)(a) - (a^3)/3 - (a^2)(-a) + (-a^3)/3 =
= 2a^3 - 2(a^3)/3 = [4/3](a^3)
Area of the triangle = [1/2]base*height = [1/2](2a)(a)^2 = <span>a^3
ratio area of the triangle / area of the parabolic region = a^3 / {[4/3](a^3)} =
Limit of </span><span><span>a^3 / {[4/3](a^3)} </span>as a -> 0 = 1 /(4/3) = 4/3
</span>
Substituting y=6x+2 into equation 3y - 18x =12 looks like:
3(6x + 2) - 18x = 12
18x + 6 - 18x = 12 distributive property left side
6 = 12 simplifying the left side
We now see a contradiction: 6 does not equal 12 What this tells us is that there is no solutions to this equation. So choice 'C' ...
