To solve the system of linear equations 8x +5y=18 and 6x+y=-2 By using the linear combination method amos decided that he should first multiply the second equation by -5 and then add the two equations together to eliminate the way terms his calculations are as shown Amoss solution is (2,-14). What did he do wrong

Lindsay is creating a bridge out of dried pasta and glue. in her plans, she sketches the graph to determine the lengths of the noodles, in centimeters, needed for the arch to increase the length of the bridge in 1 centimeter increments.which function did lindsay use to create her design? f(x) = (x – 5)2 + 8 f(x) = –(x + 5)2 + 8 f(x) = 0.5(x + 5)2 + 8 f(x) = –0.5(x – 5)2 + 8

Polygons efgh and e′f′g′h′ are shown on the coordinate grid: what set of transformations is performed on efgh to form e′f′g′h′? a. a translation 1 unit to the left followed by a 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin b. a translation 1 unit to the right followed by a 90-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin c. a 90-degree clockwise rotation about the origin followed by a translation 2 units to the right d. a 90-degree clockwise rotation about the origin followed by a translation 2 units to the left

Astudent draws two parabolas on graph paper. both parabolas cross the x-axis at (-4, 0) and (6,0). the y-intercept of thefirst parabola is (0, –12). the y-intercept of the second parabola is (0-24). what is the positive difference between the avalues for the two functions that describe the parabolas? write your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.
