Answer:

The same way you tell if a parabola opens up or down, by the leading coefficient of the variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the x-axis is positive to the right, a positive leading coefficient (3) means it opens to the right. eg. And a negative leading coefficient (-2) means it opens to the left.

Vertices A and B of triangle ABC are on one bank of a river, and vertex C is on the opposite bank. The distance between A and B
AURORKA [14]
A suitable solver will tell you instantly that the measure of b is 179.18 ft.

_____
If you want to do it yourself (meaning also with the aid of a calculator), you can use the Law of Sines. The given side is side "c", so you need the measure of angle C. That will be
  180° -33° -63° = 84°
Then side "b" can be found from
  b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
  b = c*sin(B)/sin(C)
  b = (200 ft)*sin(63°)/sin(84°) ≈ 179.183 ft

When three pipes fill a pool, they can finish in 12 hours. Two of the pipes can finish in 18 hours if they are working together.
ladessa [460]
3 pipes take 12 hours
⇒ In 1 hour, the 3 pipes can fill 1/12 of the pool

2 of the pipes take 18 hours
⇒ in 1 hour, the 2 pipes can fill 1/18 of the pool

In 1 hour, the third pipe alone can fill :

\dfrac{1}{12} - \dfrac{1}{18} = \dfrac{3}{36} - \dfrac{2}{36} = \dfrac{1}{36} \text { of the pool}

Time needed :

1 \div \dfrac{1}{36} = 1 \times 36 = 36 \text { hours}

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: It will take 36 hours for the third pipe to fill the pool.

Compute the probability of event E if the odds in favor of E are 28 to 29.
omeli [17]
<h3>Answer:  28/57</h3>

Explanation:

The odds in favor of 28 to 29 means there are 28 ways the event E could occur and 29 ways it doesn't occur.

So there are 28 instances out of 28+29 = 57 ways total.

It leads to the fraction 28/57 which cannot be reduced further.
