<h3>
Answer:</h3>
Factor 6 from the first two terms.
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
By factoring out "a", you can better see what "h" needs to be.
- y = 6(x^2 +3x) +14 . . . . 6 factored from first 2 terms
- add the square of half the x-coefficient inside parentheses; add the opposite outside: y = 6(x^2 +3x +2.25) +14 -6(2.25)
- rewrite as a square; combine the constants: y = 6(x+1.5)^2 +0.5

Answer:
- red division: 6 teams
- blue division: 5 teams
Step-by-step explanation:
We can let r and b represent the numbers of teams in the red and blue divisions, respectively. The total number of goals scored in each division will be the average for that division times the number of teams in that division.
r - b = 1 . . . . . . there is 1 more red team than blue
4.5r +4.2b = 48 . . . . . . total goals scored per week
__
Solving by substitution, we have ...
r = b +1
4.5(b +1) +4.2b = 48 . . . . substitute for r
8.7b +4.5 = 48 . . . . . . . . simplify
8.7b = 43.5 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4.5
b = 43.5/8.7 = 5 . . . . . divide by 8.7
r = b +1 = 6 . . . . . . . . . find r
There are 6 red teams and 5 blue teams.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The basic idea is that you make an equation for each relation given in the problem statement. For a problem like this, you do need to have an understanding of how the average number of goals would be calculated and how that relates to the total goals.
Answer:
Yes;Each side of triangle PQR is the same length as the corresponding side of triangle STU
Step-by-step explanation:
You can observe the sides of both triangles to see if this property holds
Lets check the length of AB
A(0,3) and B(0,-1)
Now check the length of the corresponding side DE
D(1,2) and E(1,-2)
The side AB has the same length as side DE.This is also true for the remaining corresponding sides.
Answer:
Billie's age = x = 17 years
Tony's age = y = 31 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Billie's age = x
Tony's age = y
Twice Billie’s age decreased by 3 is Tony’s age.
y = 2x - 3..... Equation 1
Tony is fourteen years older than Billie.
x = y - 14
We substitute y - 14 for x in Equation 1
y = 2x - 3..... Equation 1
y = 2(y - 14) - 3
y = 2y - 28 - 3
y - 2y = -28 - 3
-y = -31
y = 31 years
Solving for x
x = y - 14
x = 31 - 14
x = 17 years.
Therefore:
Billie's age = x = 17 years
Tony's age = y = 31 years
No the 2 equations are not equal
the -1/10, -1/10 can't be subtracted from 1 3/10g
they are not like terms
the proper equation is
1/5g converts to 2/10g
2/10g - 1g + 1 3/10 g = 5/10g or 1/2g
1/2g - 2/10 is final equation
