Two numbers multiply to be -40 and add to be 3. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The numbers are (x,y)=(-5,8) or (8,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let two numbers be x and y,

We have,

x+y=3

x=3-y---(i)

Now,

xy=-40

(3-y)y=-40 [From (i)]

3y-y^2=-40

y^2-3y-40=0

Factoring,

(y + 5) (y - 8)=0

Either,

y+5=0        or,      y-8=0

y=-5                      y=8

When y=-5,

x=3-y

3--5

3+5

8

When y=8,

x=3-y

3-8

-5

Without graphing, classify each system of equations as independent, dependent, or inconsistent. Solve independent systems by graphing.1) 5 - y = 2x
6x - 15 = -3y

2) 6y + 2x = 8
12y + 4x = 4

Answers

The correct classification of the given equations is as follows:

  • First equation is dependent
  • Second equation is inconsistent

What is a Dependent Equation?

This refers to the system of equations where an equation has infinite solutions and has more than one form on a given line.

With this in mind, we can see that when we are given a system of equations such as

5 - y = 2x

6x - 15 = -3y, then we know that this is a dependent equation because of the infinite solutions on the two equations.

Which of the following is the graph of f(x) = x2 − 5x + 4?

Answers

Answer:

 refer attachment for the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The equation f(x)=x^2-5x+4

We have to draw the the graph for the given equation.

Consider the given equation  f(x)=x^2-5x+4

The vertex of the parabola of the form  f(x)=ax^2+bx+c is given by x=-(b)/(2a)

Here, a = 1 , b = -5 and c = 4

Thus, vertex is

x_v=-(\left(-5\right))/(2\cdot \:1)=(5)/(2)

Also, the y coordinate at x=(5)/(2) is

y_v=\left((5)/(2)\right)^2-5\cdot (5)/(2)+4

Simplify, we get,

y_v=-(9)/(4)

Thus, The vertex of parabola is \left((5)/(2),\:-(9)/(4)\right)

y - intercept is the point where x = 0

Plug x = 0 in given equation f(x)=x^2-5x+4

f(0)=0^2-5(0)+4=4

Thus, y - intercept is (0,4)

Now, we calculate x- intercept

x- intercept is where y is equal to 0.

Put f(x) = 0

We have,

x^2-5x+4=0

Solving the given quadratic equation using quadratic formula ,we have

x_(1,\:2)=(-b\pm √(b^2-4ac))/(2a)

we have a = 1 , b = -5 and c = 4

x_(1,\:2)=(-\left(-5\right)\pm √(\left(-5\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:4))/(2\cdot \:1)

Simplify, we have,

x_(1,2)=(5\pm√(9))/(2)

Thus, x_1=4, x_2=1

Thus, The x - intercept are (4,0) and (0,1)

Plot the graph and we obtain as shown below.

Rewrite the following linear equation in slope-intercept form. Write your answer with no spaces. y+2=4(x-3)

Answers

Answer:  The required slope-intercept form of the given linear equation is

y=4x-14.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to write the following linear equation in slope-intercept form :

y+2=4(x-3)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We know that

the slope-intercept form of a straight line is written as

y=mx+c,

where 'm' is the slope and 'c' is the y-intercept of the line.

From equation (i), we have

y+2=4(x-3)\n\n\Rightarrow y+2=4x-12\n\n\Rightarrow y=4x-12-2\n\n\Rightarrow y=4x-14.

Thus, the required slope-intercept form of the given linear equation is

y=4x-14, where slope, m = 4 and y-intercept, c = -14.

it would be y=4x-14.
