Answer:
a = 2, b = -9, c = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Replacing x, y values of the points in the equation y = a*x^2 + b*x +c give the following:
(-1,14)
14 = a*(-1)^2 + b*(-1) + c
(2,-7)
-7 = a*2^2 + b*2 + c
(5, 8)
8 = a*5^2 + b*5 + c
Rearranging:
a - b + c = 14
4*a + 2*b + c = -7
25*a + 5*b + c = 8
This is a linear system of equations with 3 equations and 3 unknows. In matrix notation the system is A*x = b whith:
A =
1 -1 1
4 2 1
25 5 1
x =
a
b
c
b =
14
-7
8
Solving A*x = b gives x = Inv(A)*b, where Inv(A) is the inverse matrix of A. From calculation software (I used Excel) you get:
inv(A) =
0.055555556 -0.111111111 0.055555556
-0.388888889 0.444444444 -0.055555556
0.555555556 0.555555556 -0.111111111
inv(A)*b
2
-9
3
So, a = 2, b = -9, c = 3
8/3 cups or 2 2/3
2/3 × 4/1 = 8/3
if u divide 3 into 8 it gives u 2 times with 2 places left
the 2 places equal 2/3
2 whole OR 6/3 + 2/3 = 8/3 OR 2 and 2/3
Answer:
9/4 * 3/4 = 27/16 = 1 
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Move terms to the left side−52+3=−9−5x2+3x=−9−52+3−(−9)=0−
Common factor−52+3+9=0−5x2+3x+9=0−(52−3−9)=0
Divide both sides by the same factor−(52−3−9)=0−(5x2−3x−9)=052−3−9=0
Solution=3±321 over 10

Answer:
63.2 = y
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of all the sides
P = 7.8+ y+37.6 + y
171.8 = 7.8+ y+37.6 + y
Combine like terms
171.8 = 45.4 + 2y
Subtract 45.4 from both sides
171.8-45.4 = 45.4 + 2y -45.4
126.4 = 2y
Divide each side by 2
126.4/2 = 2y/2
63.2 = y
