Answer:

The door is <u>1 foot 6 inches</u> wider than the chair.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

You measured the width of your front door to be 3 feet and 2 inches.

The chair you are trying to get through the door measured to be 20 inches wide.

Now, to find how much wider is the door than the chair.

Width of door = 3 feet and 2 inches.

So, we convert into inches by multiplying:

1 foot = 12 inches.

3 feet and 2 inches = 3 × 12 + 2 = 36+2 = 38 inches.

Width of the chair = 20 inches.

Now, to get how wide is the door than the chair we subtract their width:

Width of door - width of chair.

38-20=18\ inches.

Then, we convert into feet and inches by dividing:

18 inches = 18 ÷ 12 = 1 foot 6 inches.

Therefore, the door is 1 foot 6 inches wider than the chair.

What is the value of h when the function is converted to vertex form?
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:  The value of 'h' is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the vertex form of a function is given by

g(x)=a(x-h)^2+k~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We are to find the value of 'h' when the following function is converted to the vertex form.

g(x)=x^2-6x+14~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

From equation (ii), we have

g(x)=x^2-6x+14\\\\\Rightarrow g(x)=x^2-2\times x\times 3+3^2-3^2+14\\\\\Rightarrow g(x)=(x-3)^2-9+14\\\\\Rightarrow G(x)=(x-3)^2+5.

Comparing it with the vertex form (i), we get

h=3.

Thus, the value of 'h' is 3.
