Question 200474: I have two equations that I cant seem to solve because I dont understand. I have been trying to solve for two days, yes I am very rusty with this it has ben over 10yrs since I had to do algebra. If you could please help it wold be greatly appreciated. Tahnk you. Nakia
x^2+y^2+10x+14y+73=0
also
36x^2+36y^2+48x-36y-11=0
the directions for this equation tells me to find the center and length of a radius of each circle

Question 201030: not sure if in right area but can someone help me with this problem
An open box is to be constructed from a piece of cardboard that is 30in. by 30in. by cutting a square out of each corner and folding up the sides. What are the dimensions of the box that will yield the maximum volume?
so confused
thanks

Question 202383: Can anyone help me with ANY of these problems? Please!
1) Solve the following system.
x^2 + y^2 = 25
2x + y = 10
The solution set {(___,___),(___,___)}
2) Complete the following item based on the given information.
The volume of a box(V) varies directly with its length(l). Using k for the constant of proportionality, express the relationship between V and l if V varies directly with l.
V = _______
3) Complete the following item based on the given information.
The volume of a box(V) varies directly with its length(l). If one of the boxes has a volume of 325 cubic inches and a length of 13 inches, what is the constant of proportionality for the group of boxes?
k = ________
4) Complete the following item based on the given information.
The volume of a box(V) varies directly with its length(l). If a box in the group has a length of 25 inches and k = 15, what is its volume?
_____ cubic inches
5) Complete the following item based on the given information.
The volume of a box(V) varies directly with its length(l). If a box in the group has a length of 30 inches, and the girth of 20 inches (perimeter of the side formed by the width and height), what is its height? Use k = 24. (Hint: Volume = length * width * height. Solve for length, and substitute into the equation for constant of proportionality.)
____ inches or ____ inches

Question 202415: Can anyone help me? The directions are:
Choose the correct conic section to fit each equation. Is it a Circle, Ellipse, Parabola, or Hyperbola?
1) x^2 + y^2 = 16
2) (x - 8)^2 + (y - 12)^2 = 25
3) (x^2/9) + (y^2/4) = 1
4) y = (1/8 x^2)
5) x = (1/16 y^2)
6) (x^2/16) - (y^2/4) = 1
7) x^2 - 4y^2 = 100
8) x^2/36 - y^2 = 1
Thanks in advance for all your help. :)

Question 202555: hyperbola

find: center, foci, vertices, asymptotes
I can't figure out how to get rid of first 9
elipse
given: vertices(-2,4);(-2,-2) passing through (0,1)
find the equation
I get the answers but my signs are wrong or I get 1/16th instead of 16
plz help

Question 204715: How do you find the answer to this? I understand where the 150 comes from, but not the -3/2.
A farmer has a total of 300 yards of fencing. He wants to enclose a recfield and then divide it into 2 plots with a piece of fencing inside the field parallel to one of the sides. Let x represent the length of the piece of fencing located inside the field. Express teh area of the field as a function of x.
There's a diagram with a rectangle and a line almost halfway through it vertically but a little bit closer to the left side, with x next to it. The answer is A=x(150-3/2x)

Question 205837: find the vertex, focus & directrix for the following functions:
(y-4)^2 = 20(x-4)
Vertex = ?
focus = ?
directrix x = ?
y^2 - 86 = 12x - 4^2
Vertex = ?
focus = ?
directrix x = ?
(x-9)^2 = 12(y-5)
Vertex = ?
focus = ?
directrix x = ?
x^2 + 40x = 4y - 16
Vertex = ?
focus = ?
directrix x = ?
