Using the given values from the problem and the illustration, three points are known which are (0,0), (6.5,-31), (-6.5,-31). The first step in solving this problem is to determine the equation of the parabola.
y = ax²
-31 = a(6.5)²
-31 = 42.25a
a = -31/42.25
a = -124/169
Therefore, the equation of the parabola is y = (-124/169)x². The value 4.5 is then substituted in the equation as x to get the answer which is 16.14 meters.
Answer: 2 d - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the number of dozen eggs in one refrigerator = d
According to the question,
There are 3 fewer dozen eggs in another refrigerator.
⇒ The number of eggs in another refrigerator = d - 3
Thus, the total dozen of eggs in both refrigerator = the number of dozen eggs in first refrigerator + the number of dozen eggs in second refrigerator
= d + d - 3
= 2 d - 3
Which is the required expression.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The line of best fit is a linear function that is closest to all the points and shows the trend in the data. Since the data is going up ultimately, the slope of the line will be positive. Only B and C are options.
To find the best fit, draw a line through the center of the most points. This line will have as its y-intercept a value around 12 and a gentle slope. This means the answer choice is C.
Answer:
D. y²/5² - x²/8² = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
A and B are both incorrectly oriented, and D is the only hyperbola that contains the points (0,5) and (0,-5).
Verification (0,5) and (0,-5) are in the hyperbola:
First replace x and y with corresponding x and y values (We will start with x=0 and y=5)

Then simplify.



If the result is an equation (where both sides are equal to each other) then the original x and y values inputted are valid. The same is true with x and y inputs x=0 and y=-5, or any other point along the hyperbola.
Answer:
x = 43
Step-by-step explanation:
180 - 65 = 115
115 = x + 72
<u>-72 -72 </u>
43 = x
x = 43
