STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given information:

Let x be the number

Mathematically, the statement can be translated below as

\begin{gathered} x\text{ }\times\frac{1}{2}\text{ = }\frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{x}{2}\text{ = }\frac{1}{3} \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ 3\times x\text{ = 2}\times1 \\ 3x\text{ = 2} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 3} \\ \frac{3x}{3}\text{ = }\frac{2}{3} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{2}{3} \end{gathered}

The next step is to represent it on a tape diagram

Y = x^2+ 7x - 5 can be written in the form y = (x + a)^2+b
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = (x - h)² + k (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex

Given y = x² + 7x - 5

To express in vertex form use the method of completing the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )²

y = x² + 2( \frac{7}{2} )x +\frac{49}{4} - \frac{49}{4} - 5

y = (x + \frac{7}{2} )² - \frac{49}{4} - \frac{20}{4}

y = (x + \frac{7}{2} )² - \frac{69}{4}

Hence

a = \frac{7}{2} and b = - \frac{69}{4}

A cruise ship is traveling at a speed of 20 knots . A knot is approximately equal to 1.151 miles per hour. What is the approxima
Mrrafil [7]
1 mile = 1760 yards
20 * 1.151 = 23.02
23.02 * 1760 = 40,515.2
40,515.2 / 60 = 675.243~
675.243~ / 60 = 11.2542~
They are traveling 11.25 yards per second
I took the number of knots multiplied by the approximate miles per hour equal
Then multiplied that by the number of yards in a mile, and then divided that by the number of minutes in an hour, and divided that by the number of seconds in a minute. That is how I got the answer, I hope it helps!
