Y=a(x-h)^2+k
axis of symmetry is x=h
given
y=2(x-(-1)^2+0
h=-1
axis of symmetry is x=-1
In 1944 Elion joined the Burroughs Wellcome Laboratories (now part of GlaxoSmithKline (a company that makes prescription medicines)). There she was first the assistant and then the colleague of Hitchings, with whom she worked for the next four decades. Elion and Hitchings developed an array (variety) of new drugs that were effective against leukemia, autoimmune disorders, urinary-tract infections, gout, malaria, and viral herpes. Their success was due primarily to their innovative (characterized by new or unique) research methods. Rather than using the trial-and-error approach used by previous pharmacologists, Elion and Hitchings examined the difference between the biochemistry of normal human cells and that of cancer cells, bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens (disease-causing agents). They used this information to create drugs that could target a particular pathogen without harming the human host's normal cells. Their methods enabled them to eliminate much of the guesswork and wasted effort typical in previous drug research.
Answer:
y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The line x = -3 is a vertical one; the slope of a line perpendicular to x = -3 is zero (0). Recall that the slope of a vertical line is undefined and that of a line perpendicular to a vertical line is 0.
Then, to write the equation of the perpendicular line, we borrow the '-2' from (-9, -2) and write y = -2. This line does indeed pass through (-9, -2) and every other point whose y-component is -2.
Answer:
true
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of comics Ross bought
A = 10*x = amount spent on buying those x number of comics at $10 each
B = 17*(x-1) = amount Ross gets from selling every comic book except one
B-A = 17*(x-1)-10x = 7x-17 = profit = 49
7x-17 = 49
7x = 49+17
7x = 66
x = 66/7
x = 9.42857 approximately
Because x isn't a whole number, I'm thinking that there's a typo in the problem somewhere. I would double check with your teacher.
