Y=2x^2 y^2=x^2+6x+9 what is a possible solution for x in the system of equations above?

So we have the two real points (3/2 , 9/2)  and (-1,2).

(Question: are you wanting to use the possible rational zero theorem? Please let me know if I didn't answer your question.)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x^2

y^2=x^2+6x+9

is the given system.

So my plain here is to look at y=2x^2 and just plug it into the other equation where y is.

(2x^2)^2=x^2+6x+9

(2x^2)(2x^2)=x^2+6x+9

4x^4=x^2+6x+9

I'm going to put everything on one side.

Subtract (x^2+6x+9) on both sides.

4x^4-x^2-6x-9=0

Let's see if some possible rational zeros will work.

Let' try x=-1.

4-1+6-9=3+(-3)=0.

x=-1 works.

To find the other factor of 4x^4-x^2-6x-9 given x+1 is a factor, I'm going to use synthetic division.

-1   |  4     0     -1     -6    -9

    |         -4     4     -3      9

    | I put that 0 in there because we are missing x^3

        4    -4     3     -9      0

The the other factor is 4x^3-4x^2+3x-9.

1 is obviously not going to make that 0.

Plug in -3 it gives you 4(-3)^3-4(-3)^2+3(-3)-9=-162 (not 0)

Plug in 3 gives you 4(-3)^3-4(-3)^2+3(-3)-9=72 (not 0)

Plug in 3/2 gives you 4(3/2)^2-4(3/2)^2+3(3/2)-9=0 so x=3/2 works as a solution.

Now let's find another factor

3/2  |     4       -4           3        -9

      |                6           3          9

      |

            4          2           6        0

So we have 4x^2+2x+6=0.

The discriminant is b^2-4ac which in this case is (2)^2-4(4)(6). Simplifying this gives us (2)^2-4(4)(6)=4-16(6)=4-96=-92.  This is negative number which means the other 2 solutions are complex (not real).

So the other real solutions that satisfy the system is for x=3/2 or x=-1.

Since y=2x^2 then for x=3/2 we have y=2(3/2)^2=2(9/4)=9/2 and for x=-1 we have y=2(1)^2=2.

So we have the two real points (3/2 , 9/2)  and (-1,2)

answer: median

step-by-step explanation:

the median is the middle value when a data set is ordered from least to greatest

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
