y = 8/x and y = 7+x
So by definition:
7+x = 8/x
Multiply all terms by x:
7x+x2 = 8
Subtract 8 from both sides and form a quadratic equation:
x2+7x-8 = 0
Factor the equation:
(x-1)(x+8) = 0
So x = 1 or x = -8
Substitute the above values into the original equations to find the values of y:
Therefore the points of intersection are (-8,-1) and (1, 8)
They work out as: (-3, 1) and (2, -14)
Equations: x -y = 2 and x^2 -4y^2 = 5 By combining the equations into a single quadratic equation in terms of y and solving it: y = 1/3 or y = 1 By means of substitution the points of intersection are at: (7/3, 1/3) and (3, 1)
Secant is a straight line that intersects a curve at two or more points
If: x-2y = 1 and 3xy-y2 = 8 Then: x =1+2y and so 3(1+2y)y-y2 = 8 => 3y+5y2-8 = 0 Solving the quadratic equation: y = 1 or y = -8/5 Points of intersection by substitution: (3, 1) and (-11/5, -8/5)
In order to plot the points on either the frequency polygon or curve, the mid values of the class intervals of the distribution are calculated. Then the frequencies with respect to the mid points are plotted. However in a frequency curve the points are joined by a smooth curve, where as in a frequency polygon the points are joined by straight lines. Apart from this major difference, a frequency polygon is a closed figure where as the frequency curve is not.
Straight line: 3x-y = 5 Curved parabola: 2x^2 +y^2 = 129 Points of intersection works out as: (52/11, 101/11) and (-2, -11)
They work out as: (-3, 1) and (2, -14)
A circle.
A straight line that intersects a circle or curve at two points, but which has both end points outside the circle or curve is called a secant. A straight line that links two points on a circle or curve is called a chord. A straight line which touches a circle or curve at one point is called a tangent. A straight line that cuts a circle or curve at one point is a straight line.* For moving diagrams see Related links below this box.
You had us baffled at "straight curve" . Could you mean if you start at the north pole, walk in a straight line, you will eventually get back to the north pole and round in a circle. Hence a straight line but no end points.
We solved the first equation for 'x': [ x = 2y + 8 ].Then we substituted it for 'x' in the second equation and rearranged: [ y2 + 4y - 12 = 0 ].Solutions of this quadratic equation are: y = 2 and -6. From which x = 12 and -4 .So the straight line intersects the hyperbola at (-4, -6) and at (12, 2) .
(52/11, 101/11) and (-2, -11) Rearrange 3x-y = 5 into y = 3x-5 and substitute this into the curve equation and then use the quadratic equation formula to find the values of x which leads to finding the values of y by substituting the values of x into y = 3x-5.
A geometrical curve is defined as any set of points. Therefore, counter-intuitively, a straight line is also a geometrical curve.
Equations: x -y = 2 and x^2 -4y^2 = 5 By combining the equations into a single quadratic equation in terms of y and solving it: y = 1/3 or y = 1 By means of substitution the points of intersection are at: (7/3, 1/3) and (3, 1)
It is a straight line joining two different points on a curve which does not cross the curve between those two points.
Secant is a straight line that intersects a curve at two or more points
The intersection of the individual graphs. In the simplest case, the graph for each equation consists of a line (or some curve); the intersection is the points where the lines or curves meet.
