Y=ax² + bx + c and A(-2,18), B(0.4), C(4,24) given

1)Let's determine 1st the value of c in using the pair of B
4= a(0)² + b(0) + c , c=4 and y=ax²+bx+4

2) Use the pair of A: 18 = 4a -2b + 4===> 4a-2b=14

3) Use C pair: 24 = 16a+4b+4 ==> 16a+4b=20

4) solve the system equation in 2) and 3) and you'll find a=2 and b=-3

Hence the equation  is y =2x²-3x+4

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

12:00 am midnight

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

I can read a 336-page book in 6 hours.

My rate r1 = 336/6 pages per hour = 56 pages per hour

Jayne can read a 144-page book in 3 hours.

Jayne rate r2 = 144/3 = 48 pages per hour

If I start reading a 5000-page book at noon and Jayne starts reading the same book at 10 AM

Taking 10 am as the reference time.

Let x represent the time from 10 am at which they would both be on the same page.

For me;

Since i started by noon; 2 hours after 10 am

Time t1 = x-2

For Jayne;

She started by 10 am

Time t2 = x

For them to be on the same page they must have read the same number of pages;

Number of pages read = rate × time

r1(t1) = r2(t2)

Substituting the values;

56(x-2) = 48(x)

56x - 112 = 48x

x(56-48) = 112

x = 112/(56-48)

x = 14 hours

Since 10 am is the reference, the time would be;

=10 am + x = 10 am + 14 hours

= 24:00

= 12:00 am midnight
