Answer:  45

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

5 : 5 : 3 is simplified so it can be rewritten as  5x  :  5x  :  3x

                                                                            ↓        ↓      ↓

                                                                        Sara    Nick  June

Sara has 18 more than June --> 5x = 3x + 18

                                                    2x = 18

                                                      x = 9

In expanded form we have 5(9) : 5(9) : 3(9)

                                              45  :  45  :  27

                                               ↓        ↓      ↓

                                           Sara    Nick  June

Simplify the expression -9+7
xenn [34]

We have

-9 + 7 = -2

You can also rewrite this as

7 - 9 = -2

If it makes you more comfortable.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) is quadratic function and g(x) is linear (since AP in the right column).

<u>Find the equation of the function f(x), use the points on the graph:</u>

  • f(x) = ax² + bx + c
  • c = 5 as the y-intercept is (0, 5)
  • a(-1)² + b(-1) + 5 = 0 ⇒ a + 5 = b
  • a(5²) + b(5) + 5 = 0 ⇒ 25a + 5b + 5 = 0 ⇒ 25a + 5a + 25 + 5= 0 ⇒ a = -1 ⇒ b= 4

<u>The function is:</u>

  • f(x) = -x² + 4x + 5

Find the equation of g(x)

<u>Find the slope of g(x):</u>

  • m = (1 - 7)/(-1 + 4) = -2

<u>Use (-4, 7) to find its equation:</u>

  • y - 7 = -2(x + 4)
  • y = -2x + 7 - 8
  • y = -2x - 1
<h3>See the required comparison below</h3>

<u>The y-intercepts:</u>

  • f(x) ⇒ 5,
  • g(x) ⇒ -1
  • -5 < - 1

<u>Values at x = 3:</u>

  • f(3) = -3² + 4(3) + 5 = 8
  • g(3) = -2(3) - 1 = - 7
  • 8 > 7

<u>Average rate of change in the interval [2,5]:</u>

  • f(x) ⇒ (0 - 9)/(5 - 2) = -3
  • g(x) ⇒ (-11 + 5)/ (5 - 2) = -2
  • -3 < -2

<u>Max of function in the interval [-5, 5];</u>

  • f(x) ⇒ 9, vertex of the function
  • g(x) ⇒ g(-5) = -2(-5) - 1 = 9, taken the least point of x as it is a decreasing function
  • 9 = 9
