Let x be the <span>heights of a maple tree and y be the height of the cherry tree.
We know:
</span>

<span>The new ratio is obtained like this:
</span>

.
From the above equation we get

.
then

Solving the above equation for y we get:

So
So the first tree is (400-160=240) more taller than cherry tree.
The answer is C
4(3-x)+6x=3x+12-x All real numbers are solutions.
To find the unit rate, divide total miles by number of gallons:
418 miles / 16 gallons = 26.125 miles per gallon
Round the answer as needed.
Answer:
<h3>
f(x) = 6(x - 2)² + 3</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = a(x - h)² + k - vertex form of the equation of the parabola with vertex (h, k)
"the parabola opens upward" means: a>0
"the parabola has x = 2 as an axis of symmetry" means: h = 2
so f(x) = a(x - 2)² + k
"the parabola contains the point (1, 9)" means:
9 = a(1 - 2)² + k
9 = a(-1)² + k
9 = a + k
k = 9 - a
"the parabola contains the point (4, 27)" means:
27 = a(4 - 2)² + k
so:
27 = a(2)² + 9 - a
27 = 4a + 9 - a
3a = 18
a = 6
and k = 9 - 6 = 3
Therefore the vertex form for this parabola is:
<u> f(x) = 6(x - 2)² + 3</u>
