Answer:  The distance from each side of the bench to the edges of the platform = 16.85 feet.

Explanation:

Length of platform = 40.75 feet

Length of bench  = 7.05 feet

Let the distance from each side of the bench to the edges of the platform be x

So, it becomes x+7.05+x = 40.75

⇒2x+7.05= 40.75

⇒2x = 40.75- 7.05

⇒x = 33.7

⇒x=\frac{33.7}{2}

⇒x= 16.85 feet .

So, the distance from each side of the bench to the edges of the platform = 16.85 feet.

Identify the Vertex: x^2 - 12x + 44
nikklg [1K]

The vertex of the given quadratic polynomial function is (6, 8)

A quadratic polynomial function is the one which can be represented in the form ax² + bx + c = y where a, b and c are coefficients and x, and y are independent and dependent variables respectively. A parabola is formed when the quadratic polynomial is plotted on graph. The x coordinate of the vertex can be found using formula (-b/2a) and y coordinate can be found by putting the value of x in the equation.

Given polynomial function x² - 12x + 44

Now, x = (-b/2a)

x = (12/2)

=> x = 6

Now, y = 6² - 12×6 + 44

y = 36 - 72 + 44

=> y = 8

Therefore, Vertex = (6, 8)

Need help on this<br><br> Z+4&gt;2z
snow_lady [41]

Answer: z < 4

z+4 > 2z

z+4-z > 2z-z ..... Subtract z from both sides

4 > z

z < 4

So the solution set for z is any number that is less than 4, which could be something like z = 2 or z = 3.

Elina [12.6K]
D, because it said that Krissy had equally distributed the bagels to each child, so 32/8=4, and then it asked how many bagels did the girls get all together, so it's 4x3=12
