30 M&Ms

1) Gathering the data

12-ounce bag of trail mix = 18 M&Ms

20-ounce bag=?

2) Assuming that the M&Ms are placed in following a constant rate we can write the following proportion:

12 --------------- 18

20 --------------- y

<em>Cross multiplying it due to the first property of proportions</em>

<em />

12y =20 x 18

12y = 360

y=30

3) So, I'd expect to find 30 M&Ms at a 20-ounce bag of trail mix.

The equation of a quadratic is =2^2+3−2and after you factorizing 2^2+3−2=0you got x = -2 and x = 1/2 and the curve crosses the y
Lelechka [254]

Given the next quadratic function:

y=2x^2+3x-2

to sketch its graph, first, we need to find its vertex. The x-coordinate of the vertex is found as follows:

x_V=\frac{-b}{2a}

where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the first two coefficients of the quadratic function. Substituting with a = 2 and b = 3, we get:

\begin{gathered} x_V=\frac{-3}{2\cdot2} \\ x_V=-\frac{3}{4}=-0.75 \end{gathered}

The y-coordinate of the vertex is found by substituting the x-coordinate in the quadratic function, as follows:

\begin{gathered} y_V=2x^2_V+3x_V-2 \\ y_V=2\cdot(-\frac{3}{4})^2+3\cdot(-\frac{3}{4})-2 \\ y_V=2\cdot\frac{9}{16}+3\cdot(-\frac{3}{4})-2 \\ y_V=\frac{9}{8}-\frac{9}{4}-2 \\ y_V=-\frac{25}{8}=-3.125 \end{gathered}

The factorization indicates that the curve crosses the x-axis at the points (-2, 0) and (1/2, 0). We also know that the curve crosses the y-axis at (0,-2). Connecting these points and the vertex (-0.75, -3.125) with a U-shaped curve, we get:

Identify each matrix A such that A^2 has identical diagonal elements?
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The correct matrices are:

Matrix:

7 1 5

1 5 7

5 7 1

all diagonal elements of A^2 are: 7^2 + 1^2 + 5^2

Matrix:

9   18  27

27 -9  18

18  27 9

all diagonal elements of A^2 are: 9^2 + 27*18 + 18*27   or (-9)^2

Matrix:

8 1 6

6 8 1

1 6 8

all diagonal elements of A^2 are: 8^2 + 6*1 + 1*6

15. If R is the midpoint of OS, OR = 8x - 51 and RS = 3x - 6, find QS.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

if you mean find OS, then:

OS = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

if you mean find OS, then:

8x-51 = 3x-6

5x = 45

x = 9

OS = 2(3x-6)

OS = 6x-12

substitute for x

OS = 6(9)-12 =42
