The length of the line is the difference between the endpoints of the line

The length of each line to the nearest fourth inch is 0.25 inch

<h3>How to measure the length of each line</h3>

The length of the horizontal line is given as:

Length = 2 inches

This is calculated as:

Length = 3 inches - 1 inch

Length = 2 inches

8 lines are to be drawn between the 1 inch and 3 inches point.

So, the length (l) of each line is:

$l = \frac{2\ inches}{8}$

Simplify the fraction

$l = \frac{1\ inches}{4}$

Divide

$l = 0.25\ inch$

Hence, the length of each line to the nearest fourth inch is 0.25 inch

One serving of granola provides 4% of the protein you need daily. You must get the remaining 48 grams from other resources. How

Fantom [35]

For this problem, let's assign a variable for the total amount of proteins needed daily/ Let that parameter be x. Now, the 48 grams is part of the total. The other portion is the one expressed in percentage. That accounts for 4% of x. Therefore, the equation would be:

x = 48 + 0.04x
Solving for x
x = 50

Thus, you will need 50 grams of protein daily.

If f ( x ) is a linear function, f ( − 1 ) = − 4 , and f ( 2 ) = 1 , find an equation for f ( x ) in slope-intercept form.

Doss [256]

Linear functions are given in the form:
y = mx + n
m slope
n y-intercept

Inserting the given values:
-4 = -1m + n
1 = 2m + n

Solve for m and n.

Answer:

Zeroes: x = 4, x = -6

The vertex is at ( -1 , 50 )

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll do the first one, you try the rest

All of these are written in y = a(x - x1)(x - x2) where x1 and x2 are given and x are the two different zeroes (or x-intercepts)

f(x) = -2(x-4)(x+6)

The zeroes are x - 4 = 0 and x + 6 = 0 if you solve, you get 4 and -6

Zeroes: x = 4, x = -6

The x value of the vertex can be found using -b/2a (in the form ax^2 + bx + c)

First expand f(x)

-2(x^2 + 2x - 24) => -2x^2 - 4x + 48

b = -4 and a = -2

-(-4)/2(-2) = 4/-4 = -1

the x-value of the vertex is -1

Now substitute -1 as x to find the y-value of the vertex

-2(-1-4)(-1+6) = -2(-5)(5) = 50 <= y-value of vertex

The vertex is at ( -1 , 50 )
