Answer:

(- 3, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5y = 14 → (1)

4x + 2y = - 4 → (2)

multiplying (1) by - 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the x- term

- 4x - 10y = - 28 → (3)

add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate x

0 - 8y = - 32

- 8y = - 32 ( divide both sides by - 8 )

y = 4

substitute y = 4 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

substituting into (1)

2x + 5(4) = 14

2x + 20 = 14 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

2x = - 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 3

solution is (- 3, 4 )

Select the correct answer. Which equation represents this line in point-slope form? A. `(y + 4) = (4)/(3) (x + 3)` B. `(y −4) =
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The correct option is `(y −4) = -(4)/(3) (x +3) ..

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the attached picture:

The points we have given are (-3, 4) and (3, -4)

Find the slope by applying the formula:

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

Here x1= -3

x2= 3

y1 = 4

y2 = -4

Now put the values in the formula:

m = -4 -4 /3 -(-3)

m = -8/3+3

m = -8/6

Now cancel the term by table of 2

m = -4/3

When two points are given, the equation of the line is

(y - y1) = m (x - x1)

y - 4 = -4/3 (x - (-3))

y-4 =  -4/3 (x+3)

Thus the correct option is `(y −4) = -(4)/(3) (x +3) ....

please help 100 points!!! will give crown to best answer if f(x) = 3x^2 -2x + 4 and g (x) = 5x ^2 + 6x -8 find (f-g) (x)
Alexxandr [17]
(f-g)(x) will be 3x^2 -2x+4 -(5x^2+6×-8)
distribute the -sign, gives us
3x^2-2x+4-5x^2-6x+8,
now combine like terms and should get,
-2x^2-8x+12,
final answer,
(f-g)(x)= -2x^2-8x+1×,
hope it helped,
good luck
